To call TuneUp Utilities 2007 useful would drastically understate the situation.
The app provides users with a powerful, well-designed utility that accesses the
entire Windows maintenance tool set and more in a fast, organized, and easy-to-use
series of connected modules.

Temp file management, registry cleaners and start-up program controls are the bread
-and-butter of these utilities, and these basics work in TuneUp more quickly and
easily than most. However, the app also sports great add-on tools you don't usually
see in a utility program. It offers a variety of Internet and program-acceleration
tweaks as well as Windows performance enhancers. The crash-preventing MemOptimizer,
a file shredder, deleted file recovery, and a respectable uninstall utility round
out the suite. You even can automate maintenance tasks with the scheduler or tweak
Windows' appearance with the styler tool. The built-in RescueCenter can restore all
changes completely or one by one.

The only thing missing is a built-in hard drive defragger, but it seems petty to complain.
The system-analyzing wizard, with its thorough reporting and upgrade suggestions,
is worth the program price alone. Between the guts of steel and the stylish, logically
arranged interface, TuneUp Utilities suits all users--from complete beginners who will
appreciate the one-click optimization to more daring users who will experiment with
all the settings.
