About System Mechanic

System Mechanic PC Tune-up software includes a suite of automated tools that clean
out hard drive clutter, repair registries, defragment drives and memory, manage
applications, speed up internet connections, and remove spyware from a computer.
Corrupt files, bad settings, and tangled registries will degrade a PC\'s performance
over time, leading to crashes, slowdowns, and system errors. System Mechanic first
eliminates the problems that bog down a system, then automatically maintains that
system at a high level of performance.

New Features in System Mechanic 7.5

- Improved user interface with options for both novice and advanced users
- A defragmentation tool, which now defrags drives up to 70% faster than before and
up to 30 times faster than the standard Windows defragmenter
- Advancements in proprietary low-level defrag functions that intelligently arrange
drive contents for maximum performance and longer disk life
