Advanced SystemCare Pro 7 is IObit’s
all-in-one package for boosting the performance of your system and keeping it
running at optimum parameters. It integrates full support for Windows 8 and
8.1, as well as improvements and new utilities.
Note: During the installation of this program, pay attention to all the screens unless
you want a toolbar to find its way in IE or Firefox.
The main application interface reveals four
primary areas, each bringing to the table its own benefits. The first two,
“Care” and “Toolbox,” are the most useful as they provide the means to initiate
scans in order to determine the current state of the system, as well as launch
individual tools and apply specific remedying actions.
In the first section, there is the
possibility to check the system for various issues, from malware and activity
history traces or the presence of unnecessary data, to detecting overall
performance bottlenecks.
Most of the tools in this section can be
configured by pressing the gear icon that appears when you hover the mouse over
them, or you can do it from the general configuration panel of the application.
The scanning process is generally fast, but
its completion depends entirely on the amount of data the engine needs to go
through.
Results are displayed clearly and include
the number of issues detected, as well as a rating that details the extent to
which the system performance, stability, and security are affected.
All the problems can be reviewed and false
positives can be eliminated from the list of repairs, but not all of them.
However, the data that falls into this category is generally known to not have
a negative impact if deleted, such as temporary or junk files.
The busiest section of the application is
“Toolbox.” It makes available a huge number of utilities that can influence for
the better the performance of the computer. There are six separate sections
sheltering a total of 32 utilities.
However, not all of them are readily
available. In some cases, they are downloaded and installed in the background
as soon as they are accessed (e.g.: Disk Doctor, IObit Unlocker, Process
Manager, etc.). The occasional shortcuts placed on the desktop and the new
entries in the Programs and Features applet are the clear signs of the
surreptitious activity.
The large number of entries is due to
constantly adding new utilities to serve users’ needs, without getting rid of
old ones. Depending on the operating system Advanced SystemCare is running on,
some of the tools are downright obsolete because their functionality has been
taken over by the OS itself.
Advanced SystemCare 7 Pro includes
anti-malware protection through the company’s free version of Malware Fighter
application. It scans for malicious code and provides partial real-time
protection, because not all shields are up and running like in the paid
edition.
It is odd to see it pinned in the section
with the cleaning tools, along with the uninstaller, registry and disk
cleaners, and the file shredder. A more suitable position would have been under
“Security.”
Advanced SystemCare Pro is not intended
just for making the system run better and managing its resources to maintain it
this way, but also for performing useful tasks like shredding important data
beyond recovery, as well as retrieving files that have been deleted by mistake.
Additionally, it provides the means to
enhance the boot speed and to check if any unnecessary processes are running.
The startup and process managers can accomplish these tasks with certain
limitations that are not encountered in some third-party, standalone tools.
The bundle also offers the possibility to
learn about the hardware capabilities of the system through the System
Information tool; during our tests, it managed to accurately detect the main
hardware components on the test machine.
On the other hand, we noticed that Protected
Folder, an app that should protect access to files and directories with a
password, is in trial mode, with only 20 uses available until expiration.
Another utility present on the list is
Start Menu 8, which adds a new start button under Windows 8 and 8.1 and
restores the usability once available in all Microsoft OSes up to (and
including) Windows 7.
The third main section in Advanced
SystemCare 7 Pro is Turbo Boost. Its purpose is to disable services and
applications working the background, according to a predefined profile (work or
game mode).
Conclusion:
Advanced SystemCare 7 is an exhaustive
collection of utilities that can improve the way your computer is running, as
the developer pinned everything that is necessary to detect and manage the
factors that are preventing the computer from running at its best.
