Tuneup Utilities 2010 9.0.2000.17

TuneUp Utilities 2010 can quickly make your Windows operating system
faster, easier to use, and more secure. And all operations performed on
the operating system are completely safe, because all changes are
monitored by TuneUp Rescue Center and can be undone at any time. All
TuneUp Utilities modules can be accessed through a common interface
that is divided into six categories. In addition, the main window also
has three general buttons in a dark gray bar to the right at the top of
the window. Pressing the first button starts the TuneUp Rescue Center
module. The second button starts the TuneUp Update Wizard, which can be
used to update TuneUp Utilities 2009 to the latest version over the
Internet. The last button provides help and settings that you can use
to customize the software package to meet your needs.

The new Start page
TuneUp
Utilities 2010 welcomes you with a completely redesigned Start page,
which tells you about the status of your computer. If problems or
nonoptimal settings are found, you are only a mouse-click away from
resolving them. The Start page also tells you when new tips for
increasing computer performance are available and warns you if
maintenance tasks are not being taken care of automatically. The Start
page also shows you whether new automatic startup programs have been
added to Windows since the last time you ran TuneUp Utilities. You can
decide whether these programs that start up automatically are really
necessary.

TuneUp Speed Optimizer
Which settings slow your
computer down? Which unnecessary services or programs are running in
the background? Is your Internet connection optimally configured?
TuneUp Speed Optimizer knows the answers to all these questions. It
examines your entire system for bottlenecks, superfluous background
programs, and incorrect settings. Great: with just one click you can
carry out most optimizations very quickly. In addition, TuneUp Speed
Optimizer provides suggestions for speeding up your system.

TuneUp Shortcut Cleaner
Cleaning
up your working environment is tedious: removing invalid shortcuts from
the Start menu, the Desktop, and the Quick Launch bar is very
time-consuming. TuneUp ShortCut Cleaner now does the work for you. It
checks whether all shortcuts are valid and removes the orphaned ones
with just a click of a button. At the same time, empty folders are
removed from the Start menu. TuneUp ShortCut Cleaner also checks
frequently used programs and cleans up the list of recently opened
files.

Support for the Opera browser
After hard disk
defragmentation, which we introduced in TuneUp Utilities 2009, the
feature most requested by customers was support for the Opera browser.
TuneUp Utilities 2010 now also includes full support for Opera. Via
several special Opera settings, TuneUp System Control now allows you to
change the number of Speed Dial entries, conveniently choose your
default search engine, and reenable fast backward and forward
navigation. Internet optimization lets you optimize Opera's performance
for your Internet connection. Free up disk space lets you delete the
Opera cache.

TuneUp Styler
Now you can also change the Vista
logo animation which appears just before logon. You can download a
whole series of great animations from the TuneUp website. Or, if you
prefer, you can choose your own personal image to display while Vista
starts up. With Vista, you can also add your own images to Vista's
logon screen: With just a few mouse clicks you can create a truly
personal logon experience.

TuneUp Uninstall Manager
Redesigned
from the ground up, TuneUp Install Manager now runs much faster and has
a new, even more intuitive interface so that it is even easier to
uninstall unnecessary programs. Unnecessary programs often are
forgotten because they were installed a long time ago and then not
used. TuneUp Utilities 2009 shows you a list of programs not used for a
long time so that you can target for uninstallation those applications
that use valuable disk space and in certain circumstances even slow
your system down.

TuneUp StartUp Manager
A smooth-running
system results when there are no unnecessary autostart applications.
The improved TuneUp Startup Manager organizes your programs into groups
and provides clear explanations to make it easier for you to identify
those programs that are not needed.New automatic startup programs are
now highlighted so that you can disable unwanted entries more easily.
System start tasks are now also listed in TuneUp StartUp Manager In
Vista, in particular, scheduled tasks are used in place of autostart
entries.

Free up disk space
The already rapid display of disk
space to be freed up is now even faster on NTFS drives. And now it is
so easy to delete even more unnecessary files, like the backup files
for the first Windows Vista service pack and the Opera and Safari
caches. The second "Free up disk space" module that helps you turn off
Windows functions that use excessive disk space has also been enhanced.
The Windows Search index can now be disabled and deleted with a single
click. This makes particular sense if you are already using a different
search engine. In addition, TuneUp Disk Space Explorer now runs faster
and no longer requires that an entire drive be analyzed. You can now
specify that only those folders be analyzed that you are really
interested in.

Lots more improvements
Along with the totally
new features, there are a series of improvements that are not
immediately visible. There are small improvements like Tooltips in the
main window, a substantial increase in the number of problems that can
be found byTuneUp Registry Cleaner, and better progress feedback from
TuneUp Drive Defrag. But there are also big improvements "under the
hood". Two good examples are a completely reworked installation program
and significant improvements in our update technology.
