Enjoy a faster, more stable and productive PC with this one-stop maintenance suite
Uniblue PowerSuite 2012 is a comprehensive set of maintenance tools for cleaning up, repairing and optimising your PC.
It includes Uniblue DriverScanner 2012, which checks the device drivers installed on your PC, highlights any that are out of date, then locates, downloads and installs the updates in a couple of clicks.
You also get a capable Registry cleaner in Uniblue RegistryBooster 2012. The program will quickly scan your Registry for redundant and broken entries, fix them at a click, then defragment the Registry to ensure it's using the minimum amount of RAM and hard drive space.
And Uniblue SpeedUpMyPC 2012 aims to improve your PCs performance through a range of different techniques: disabling unnecessary services, cleaning up junk files, optimising your Internet settings and applying a host of useful Registry tweaks. You get three bonus "Speed tools", too: a CPU manager stops runaway processes from grabbing all your CPU time; the proactive thumbnail generator accelerates Explorer navigation by generating thumbnail images in advance; and Software quick-starter claims it can help applications launch more quickly from the Start menu.
There's plenty of functionality on offer, then, but well-designed and clear interfaces mean it's all very easy to access, even if you're a PC novice. And the emphasis is constantly on your safety, so for instance most of the programs will save your original settings before they make any changes. If there are any problems then you can usually restore those previous settings at a click, quickly returning your PC to normal.
Note that you also receive Uniblue System Tweaker 2012 free with every PowerSuite 2012 order. Unblue System Tweaker enables you to take full control of your PC.
