NEW! TuneUp Program Deactivator™ with automatic feature

Now our Program Deactivator™ switches off applications after use

Last year we presented a unique tool for keeping PCs optimised: TuneUp Program Deactivator™. With this feature, users were able to simply switch off programs they didn't need. This included disabling the respective program's components such as tasks, services and background processes and reducing the load on a PC to almost nothing. This year, we have taken a major step forward with the second generation of the Program Deactivator. It works in three easy steps:
Phase I - switches programs to standby mode
Phase II - reactivates programs whenever they're needed in a matter of seconds
NEW! Phase III - automatically switches programs back to “sleep” mode

Our customer’s favourites

With each day of use, the reliability and performance of PCs and laptops decline. The result: annoying wait times, low response rates, a system in disarray and constant crashes. To prevent such scenarios, we developed TuneUp Utilities™ into a solution that stands up to any and every challenge. Millions of users worldwide have trusted our PC tuning software for years. The following topics matter most to our customers:

Increase performance easily: more fun and no more hassles with PCs

Our tuning suite offers a host of additional options to quickly and extensively optimise performance. A few of these tools are:
• TuneUp Turbo Mode stops over 70 PC issues and ensures both programs and Windows® perform at maximum level.
• TuneUp Live Optimization speeds up boot times and makes your programs run more smoothly.
• “Disable startup programs” boosts start-up and lowers background activities while working with Windows®.
• “Defragment hard disk” arranges files and folders on the hard disk so intelligently, that they can be read and written faster.

Keeping a PC clean the smart way: maintenance options that make PCs shine

1-Click Maintenance and Automatic Maintenance by TuneUp
• Remove unneeded files
• Fix registry problems
• Defrag the registry
• Delete orphaned program shortcuts
• Defrag the hard disc for top performance
• Boost PC start-up and shut-down times

More than 30 tools for a “Windows® like it was on the very first day” feeling

In order to offer PC users optimum support in every area, we’ve thought of everything: quick access to key tuning steps and tools, stopping PC breaks, getting rid of dead weight caused by programs, locating memory hogs and removing data trash. Of course, we also thought about options for fixing errors, doing repair work as well as for customising the appearance of Windows®. In other words: there are more than 30 good reasons to use TuneUp Utilities™ 2012.

    By Shirlz TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
    I bought TuneUp Utilities 2011 from Amazon 6 months ago, and recently received an early-bird discount from TuneUp to upgrade to this new 2012 release - I am glad I did!

    It has much the same tabbed user interface which is clean and easy to use and further help information is easy to find. All the optimising you need to do is all found and managed on one tab, but the Status & Recommendation tab, which is the homepage, will tell you the current state of optimisation and if any tasks need carried out. I like the way this page has a progress bar guiding you through the unused potential of the program to help you optimise the system.

    I really like the new Economy Mode, which like the Turbo Mode, is completely customisable. I like having the ability to easily switch between economy, normal and turbo mode to suit my usage at the time. Program Deactivator has been brilliant in this version too, and has trimmed a lot off my boot time and helped me find the resource hogs on system load.

    All the maintenance and tweaking I ever want to do is all in one place and it is easy to use. I have not had any faults, errors or any kind of issue with either the 2011 version, or this 2012 version which I have been playing with for 10 days now.

    I am not particularly fussed about the Customise Windows tab, as I am happy with how I have Windows 7, but if you like these types of customising toys, there are dozens and dozens of options to modify windows settings and change Windows appearance so you can tweak to your heart's content!

    Overall, it was a trouble-free install; it's a solid, reliable build and it's easy to use. Superb program deserving of 5 stars!

    ** Update **
    This second-generation of Program Deactivator really is brilliant - "Phase II Reactivates programs whenever they're needed in a matter of seconds NEW! Phase III automatically switches programs back to "sleep" mode". Nearly every program I install wants to run at Startup, regardless of whether I need it to. Phase II works when either plugging in a USB device that wakes a program, or by manually starting the program. Once you are finished with it, TuneUp either deactivates it at the time, if it can, or at next reboot. So, cheeky programs can't force themselves to be running all the time again. This really is keeping my laptop running faster.

    My nice fairly high spec. Vaio lap-top (Windows xp) was running slowly.
    This software looked as though it might fix the problem.
    I don't think that it really improved things much at all!
    It loaded ok although the instructions were fairly minimal.
    My lap-top seemed just as slow afterwards though and now has errors such as telling me that the battery is never more than 50% charged. Also the software dialogue seems to be partly in German and partly in English - very confusing!
    The programme apparently found lots of errors and said that it had fixed them. BUT when I re-ran the programme a few minutes later it again found lots of errors and apparently fixed them again! (Ground-hog day?)

    In conclusion: Not a lot of money but not a lot of good either.
