There are a variety of useful tools in the Protect module. Here you can customize advanced Windows settings, but unless you know exactly what you’re doing, it might be best to avoid changing anything. Recover is where you will find the tools to fix and troubleshoot issues with your PC, including a System Restore option. The Memory Mechanic gained me nearly an extra 2GB of memory in less than 20 seconds.

This module features a series of tools designed to speed up your PC and your internet. The scan itself was very fast, and fixing the issues was a simple case of pressing the Clean Selected button. There are also other cleaning options and an Advanced Uninstaller.Īccording to the scan we performed, System Mechanic found 261 junk files, and 28 registry issues. This tool cleans your system of over 50 kinds of unnecessary junk. We’ll look at Protect later as a separate security category.

With that in mind, the features are broken down into easily-understandable categories within the Toolbox-Clean, Speed Up, Protect, Recover, and Manage. System Mechanic is aimed at personal and business users who want to keep their PC running smoothly.
