CCleaner and Diskeeper for me. I don't notice much of a different, but I trust that they are doing what they are supposed to do.

TuneUp ->in idle

CCleaner with enhancer ->daily

Yeah, the difference isn't immediately visible for people who do take care of their systems periodically. If you don't do that, I think you will notice a steady deterioration of system speed in a few months time. You'll notice the difference the moment you format re-install the OS.

IMO, the only things that do really make a difference over a period of time are cleaning the browser cache and defragging (if you still have a mechanical drive, that is). Along with that turning off unnecessary startup items, stopping RAM consuming services and deleting unnecessary scheduled tasks do help. But again, the difference will be more noticeable over a period of time, not necessarily immediately.

2 PC's with identical hardware configuration installed on exactly the same day will prolly behave entirely differently a year down the line depending on the kind of care it has received IMO.

I've recently re-started my search for a good system maintainer, after years of using jv16. jv16 is the best as far as registry cleaning goes. Unfortunately, as i ran Ccleaner for temp and history (jv16 sucks in that regard - or so I've always found, maybe I've set it up wrong?), and the deinstaller is simply outdated when compared to standalone software, and I tested out many of the suites out there. I wanted a light cleaner with the accent on registry and junk cleaning. It's wothout a doubt JetClean. Clean registry, shortcuts, windows junk and optimises ram in one click. Also has a feature full pack of tools (which i do not use), like registry and disk defrag, internet and performance booster, startup edit, uninstaller, but those are weak. And unnecessary for me. So if anyone wants - try it.

A good one also is SlimCleaner - like CCleaner with a cloud database for additional apps. Has a weak reg scanner though.

Advanced System Care is the best for me:), its simple and ease of use
