#LIFEHACKER GLARY UTILITIES FREE#

The only difference between the free and paid version seems to be that the “One click maintenance” option can’t be set to run automatically in the free version. On top of all this, its available in a totally freeware version. Internet Explorer Assistant for managing or removing browser helper objects.Process Manager useful tool to see what’s running on your computer, good to know so that you can find dangerous or unnecessary programs.File Splitter and Joiner for splitting large files into smaller manageable files, and rejoining them.Duplicate Files Finder basic but somewhat effective tool for finding duplicate files, checks by name and file size.Disk Analysis shows you the disk space usage of your files and folders.File Encrypter and Decrypter added privacy for sensitive or private files.File Undelete for attempting to undelete accidentally deleted files.File Shredder Deletes files permanently and irrecoverably.Tracks Eraser Erases web browser tracks, history, cookies etc.A context menu optimizer very handy for removing unused options from the context menu.A startup manager for managing which programs run on startup.Other features enable you to delete empty folders and dead shortcuts. If in doubt, you can make a backup first. It also has a registry cleaner which so far seems pretty good compared to most ones i’ve tried out, just be careful and try not to delete anything you’re not absolutely sure about. This includes a disk cleaner for scanning for and removing junk temp files from your computer to free up valuable space. Its an all in one utilities suite that has some very useful things that most computer users are sure to find useful at some stage. While the name may not sound too exciting, it seems to be a very good, well programmed, well thought out, and most importantly of all, useful piece of software. If this sounds good to you, then you might want to take Glary Utilities for a test drive. Wouldn’t it be good if you could have one program that would do several useful things for your computer? Things such as optimizing it, cleaning it, and improving speed, reliability, privacy and security?
