There are several utilities out there that advertise that they can clean-up your temporary internet files, your Startup applications or quickly clean-up your registry, but usually they come in separate programs and each require their own scan. Having something all inclusive with the whole ball of wax, that works without any lingering problems, is the ultimate solution. That’s why I’m recommending Glary Utilities today, from Glarysoft.
Glary Utilities is an all-in-one Registry Cleaner, Shortcuts Fixer, Startup Manager, Temp files cleaner, Tracks Eraser and Spyware Remover. Although each may not be as in depth as some of the dedicated cleaning tools, it does a great job of cleaning up all of the items in each of these categories.
The entire scan on my computer lasted only about 5 minutes and it found several dozen issues that it recommended be resolved.
Along with the scanning tools, Glary Utilities also includes the following:
- Uninstall Manager
- Startup Manager
- Memory Optimizer
- Context Menu Manager
- Registry Defrag
- File Shredder
- File Undelete
- File Encrypter and Decrypter
- Disk Analysis
- Duplicate Files Finder
- Empty Folders Finder
- File Splitter and Joiner
- Process Manager
- Internet Explorer Assistant
- Windows Standard Tools
Clean Up & Repair
Optimize and Improve
Privacy & Security
Files & Folders
System Tools
As you can see there really isn’t an area that Glary Utilities doesn’t cover. All of administrative tools you need, all rolled into one package and all free.
I personally like the Startup Manager more than anything. It essentially takes the poor included MSCONFIG startup manager and injects with a nice, easy to read GUI interface.
