*Review Ashampoo Windows Optimizer 07*




The Ashampoo Win Optimizer 2007 is the fantastic successor to the hugely popular Win Optimizer 2007. With the new user interface and many new features you get an unbeatable collection of tools that make your Windows® system fast, easy and safe. This software keeps the windows supercharged by scouring all the dump assimilated after usage of windows… Ashampoo Win Optimizer 2007 has 12 powerful easy-to-use modules that can easily be started from the main menu of the program. The software is very easy to use and is of great value for those who don’t want to waste their time searching Windows utility whole over the windows….

This powerful tool has been amalgamated into 5 easy menus .

The Interface: -The interface of the program is very sleek and easy to use .The interface is so sleek and looks very elegant and can be handled by a noob The programs in the menus are prudently determined. The blending of the colour scheme and buttons are so adjusted that they looks very unruffled and does not looks gaudy… In the entire total
interface is smooth to eyes and has a perfect balance of color combination.
  • The Interface: -As already stated the menu is very clear and very easy to understand …. It has been divided in the following categories :-
  • Cleaning Tools.
  • Tuning Tools
  • File Tools
  • Tweaking Tool
  • Click Optimization
Also on the upper left corner of the screen you will notice 3 links … Comprises of the following:--
  • Option
  • Internet
  • Help and SupportCenter..
The default skin is very compact and very ease to use. A noob using this Tweaking tool will never feel drowsy while using this software... The Skin can be changed but I’ll recommend u the default one as it is immaculate of em all

The Categories: -
So here’s a complete essay on all the categories of the software. Every category is allocated with 3 significant tools. Every tools id very useful for day to day cleaning of the computer. The under written description will give u a ample knowledge about each and every tools.

Cleaning Tools: -
This option consists of 3 tools which are meant eliminating redundant files and gratuitous Registry Entry .
The Cleaning tools are very easy to work with and to safe your computer it doesn’t permanently delete files the deleted files are sent to the Trash Can [Kuda Ghar or Recycle bin ] so that if any important file is deleted then there is no system down ..The following tools come under Cleaning Tools:-
  • Drive Cleaner: - Drive Cleaner seeks out and deletes redundant files on your computer drive, freeing up valuable space and streamlining your system. The default settings are safe and will only find items that can be safely deleted. If you are not sure about setting the options just leave the standard settings as they are. This will produce good cleanup performance with maximum protection for your system. In the picture below you can see the main dialog of the Drive Cleaner function module.
  • Registry Cleaner: - Registry Cleaner seeks out and deletes redundant entries in the Windows® registry. This can speed up your system by reducing the size of the registry, which reduces the processing overhead required every time the registry is accessed. Registry Cleaner can also find and delete registry entries that can compromise your privacy and security. In the screenshot below you see the main dialog of the Registry Cleaner.
  • Internet Cleaner: - Using the Internet and surfing the web creates an amazing number and variety of temporary files and data objects on your computer. Almost all this data can be deleted safely. Internet Cleaner seeks out and allows you to delete all the temporary or security-compromising data types created on your machine while you are online. At the same time, it provides mechanisms for maintaining the convenience of these Windows® and web mechanisms. For example, you can create a list of trusted sites whose cookies will be ignored in the searches
Tuning Tools: -The tuning tools option tunes every part of the computer for Optimum performance so that u can surf ur computer without any hassle. The whole program keeps the system in perfect tune and u didn’t need to find those crappy tools to keep your system in tune when you get a novel experience in a compact software … The Tuning tools consist 3 valuable tools namely:-

  • Start Up tuner:- Startup Tuner lets you see what programs are being launched automatically when you start Windows® and lets you decide whether you want them to be launched or not. In addition to this Startup Tuner also displays all the entries listed in the Add/Remove Programs application in the Windows® Control Panel and lets you edit and delete them (useful for orphaned entries that no longer serve any useful purpose). The startup tuner is the replacement of “System Configuration Utility” that can be opened by typing msconfig in Run from start menu.
  • IP Spam blocker: -This little tool enables you to just switch off the messaging service, getting rid of these annoying advertising messages forever! This tool is only for Windows® NT, 2000 and XP, you can't use it to switch off the messaging service under Windows® 95, 98 or Me. . This new kind of spam, known as "IP spam" or "Net spam", is generated through the internal Windows® messaging service, which is actually a tool provided to enable network administrators to send messages to multiple users via the network
  • Windows Function: - The Windows® Functions provides direct access to the three most useful tools, making it much easier to use them regularly. These three important Windows® tools are Scandisk, Defrag, and System Restore. Important: Please note that the System Restore tool is only available in Windows® XP.
File Tools: - This option consists three tools for file handling. This software is a real gem really there are many useful utility. This option includes following tools:-
  • File Wiper: - The File Wiper module deletes files and folders permanently so that they cannot be recovered with undelete programs or even by data recovery labs with advanced tools and instruments. It does this by overwriting all the data the files contain. You can choose different methods for wiping the files, depending on the level of security you need. In the screenshot below you see the main dialog of the File Wiper.
  • File Splitter/Joiner: - This module enables you to split large files into two or more smaller files. Later you can then use the Joiner function to reassemble the original large file from the set of split files. There are many uses for this function. For example, you can use it to split files that are too big to fit on a CD so that you can store them on two or more CDs. Or you can split large files you want to send as email attachments (many email providers impose limits on the maximum size of email attachments).
  • Encrypter/Decrypter: - This module enables you to encrypt files to prevent others from accessing their contents without your permission. The files are encrypted with a password that you choose, which is used like a key to lock and unlock your data. The contents of encrypted files are "scrambled" and they cannot be opened by anyone who does not have your password. The Decrypter will remove the password .
Tweaking Tools :- Hmm this option is not very important as the topic suggest The main option are as follows :-
  • System Information: - This program performs computer configuration analysis and provides detailed information of your computer hardware and working modes. The System Information detects processor and co-processor types, CPU and bus frequency. Provides information on CPU features, cache, motherboard, hard disks, S.M.A.R.T.,CD/DVD devices, SCSI devices, memory modules, chip sets, BIOS, processes, USB devices, DMI/SMBIOS, monitor, video card, sound card, network card, printer, installed programs, etc. This program also creates a file report that you can send to support members if you have any problems with your computer.
  • Defrag: - Defrag reorganizes all the untidy parts of your fragmented files and stores them together so that Windows can find them quickly and efficiently. The Defrag speed is lot better than that of the default Window Defrager
  • File Associater:- Many programs are changing the file extension(s), sometimes without any advise. If you want to open a file with a double-click it may cause an error or an unwanted application starts to process that file. With the File Associator you may choose which files are associated with which program. Quick, easy and whenever you want.
Click Optimization: - This module optimizes your complete Windows® with only one click. If you use the default options, the functions Drive Cleaner, Registry Cleaner and Internet Cleaner are executed automatically. This was especially designed for inexperienced users. Even without any knowledge of coding or about the Windows® system you will get astonishing and secure cleaning and optimization performance.




Pros: -

At the positive side of the software lots of thing so here I go :-
  • Free of Cost.
  • Low on System Resources.
  • Ease of use.
  • Power Tools for several work.
  • Can be replaceable for several software.
Cons: -

There is much less at the corner but there is also some negative part of the software:-
  • Must be registered to claim the full versions.
  • Not available for Linux.
  • Some tools are not useful and some are underpowered.
  • Lack of tools when compared to other paid Optimization tools like Tune Up…..
Conclusion: -

At the last I am quite happy as the software is free of cost and help me in cleaning my PC without any problem Since I am not a professional usage of these type of software so don’t except much .

The software is free but to avail the free key u need to register at net:--

Do not compare this one with Tune Up,system mechanic and all cause its free and has less facilities like them so its a bit difficult for it to survive i.e why its free ..
