IOBit Advanced SystemCare is one of the most popular Windows programs on all download sites and is now available in the new version 13. It is the typical tool to optimize and find the right configuration of the computer, automatically correcting system errors, cleaning up the disk from references and files no longer valid or obsolete and recognizing which services to disable to make the pc go faster. It is a program similar to the famous TuneUP (not free) and Glary Utilities free (free) and is one of the most popular alternatives by users around the world. Advanced SystemCare 13 can be downloaded for free in its free version or can be purchased to unlock all its functions.
After the download, you can install it without difficulty by choosing the Italian language and deactivating the installation of the IObit Toolbar which is useless.
To meet the less experienced users, at the first start you can follow a short illustrated tutorial that explains how to use the tool and the meaning of the buttons in the interface. SystemCare 13 starts in simplified mode by showing a single button and hiding most of the commands and options.
I recommend, however, to switch to expert mode because it is always better to check what these types of programs do and to have the possibility to disable some operations.
Compared to the previous version, IOBit, in addition to improving the program in its functions, has added some tools that, briefly, we are going to discover:
1) The best part of the program is certainly the general optimization of Windows which allows you to scan the system in all its aspects to find the best general PC configuration and increase performance. In particular, by clicking on Correct, you can perform the following tasks in a single process: Malware Removal, Registry Fix, Privacy Cleaner, Removal of Useless Files, Internet Optimization, Registry Defrag, System Optimization, Security Problem Correction, Fix Links Invalid, Disk Scan, Vulnerability Fix, Disk Defragmentation.
If you prefer, you can exclude one of the operations by removing the cross before pressing on Correct .
In particular I recommend not to include the disk defrag (very long and useful only if the disk is almost full) and the Privacy Fix that deletes all the activities saved on the web browser (provided that you do not want to delete the traces of use of the computer and navigation).
After the scan you can see the details and perform the repair.
2) Under the Tools menu you can run various IOBit tools for checking, correcting errors and optimizing the PC.
You can use all the tools included in the IOBit suite except two: Registry Cleaner and Internet Booster which are part of the PRO version, for a fee (see, alternatively, the best Registry Cleaner such as Ccleaner and how to increase internet speed with the accelerator automatic Auslogic).
Among others are interesting:
- Smart Ram that remains in the background to optimize the management and use of RAM memory preventing it from being too busy by programs.
- IoBit Uninstaller one of the best program uninstallers.
- Startup Manager to select programs to start with the computer being turned on.
- Game Booster to optimize the pc for video games during a game.
- WinFix to solve common Windows problems.
- IOBit Unlocker to delete, move or rename busy or running files.
- Auto Shutdown to configure the automatic shutdown of the PC.
- ASC Portable version to install a portable version of Advanced SystemCare on a USB stick for use on other computers.
3) Turbo Boost is finally a way to activate the optimal configuration of the PC automatically but temporarily, depending on whether it is used for work or for games. Basically some services are disabled and some applications are turned off which should not be necessary if you are working on the computer or if you play. Turbo Boost can be deactivated with one click, restoring disabled services and apps.
Each Advanced System Care tool can be configured in the settings menu, accessible from the icon with three lines at the top right.
In particular, check the general settings to disable, if you do not want, the start of the program when Windows starts. IOBit ASC remains running in the background on the computer and, from the icon near the clock, you can activate the Turbo Boost in a click with the right button. From the same icon it is also possible to open the system monitor which shows, in real time, the use of CPU and memory. From the quick settings you can activate the various optimizations of the PC and the main tools including autocare (automatic care) and maintenance.
To conclude, it is an excellent program of a type in which the choices are really many. Given that a test never refuses, especially because it can be used for free, I therefore recommend downloading IOBIT's Advanced System Care for general computer care. Attention only that in the installation you have to choose the custom one to avoid installing the annoying toolbar.
