Overview of the Smart PC Fixer

By Barney Alvardo


Spyware Doctor, Malewarebytes, Smart PC Fixer-these are just three of the hundreds of registry cleaners on the market these days, promising to be the most effective means of finding and eliminating harmful viruses and activity in your system. Based on price ranges and traditional sounding names, many have chosen the Smart Fixer throughout the year, but is it all that it claims to be?

Before installation of any disk or program, always research available information that will educate you on your decision. The Smart PC Fixer was introduced to the market in early 2012. Featuring an extremely user friendly design that testers referred to as "intuitive", it works efficiently by cutting hidden elements. All functions and tools for use are easily laid out, right in the main menu.

This scanning system possesses mostly identical features to the majority of registry cleaners. These include scan and clean, system fix, system optimization, system tools, and a backup option. At first glance, the Smart Fixer has all of the and capabilities it needs to keep any computer running smoothly.

System optimization is the main way to speed up the performance of your computer. Use of this tool makes it possible to minimize the clutter and other useless space-takers lagging on your PC's service, initial startup, menu, and desktop. The intention, of course, is to achieve maximum performance.

The system fix tool is actually quite handy. Designed to scan the entirety of the computer for errors, it diagnoses these breaks or corruptions and gives the operator the option to fix or delete them. Broken shortcuts, ActiveX, Winsock2 troubles, and other associated malfunctioning files waste valuable space on your computer, leading to a slower running and more annoying system.

Scan and clean is the option that is used most commonly as the selling point. Along with the obvious, this feature also comes with an evidence and junk file cleaner. Although this evidence cleaner in particular may sound like incentive enough to set the PC Fixer apart from the rest, it is actually a classy way of explaining how it will delete your browsing history and internet cookies.

System Tools is a folder containing other helpful ways to help your computer maximize its performance potential. It features a file shredder, a file splitter, an uninstall manager, a disk defragmenter, a windows update system checker, a BHO manager, an ActiveX blocker, and an internet explorer toolkit that offers restore and management options.

Any registry cleaner available today should come equipped with a backup tool, which backs up computer files prior to scanning and repairing. Essential for those that are not so technologically advanced, this comes in handy when you accidentally delete an important file that could lead to a total disrupt in computer usage. Backup is always important to use.

In the end, the Smart PC Fixer came up quite short of being a worthwhile computer cleaner. The biggest perk it provided was the easy to use interface, but that hardly outweighed the cons. The registry scanner worked at a much slower rate than one would prefer, especially since other programs tended to lag when this feature was in use.

The accuracy of the Smart Fixer's scanner was also a disappointment. Removal of errors is guaranteed, but that depends on if the scanner can detect any malicious activity. Particularly disruptive viruses are smart at disguising themselves, and this PC Fixer was no detective. While it can't be said that it is useless or simply a sham, there are several other available registry scanners in the same price range that produced a much more comforting result.
