Questions & Answers

Which versions of this version came out after this version(what year)? And how many newer versions since this version have come out?

You don't need to buy a particular version The program works with a subscription, and the newer version is automatically downloaded as long as your subscription is paid. As a result, I believe the majority of them are included with It has been updated to version There are 5 of them and they are Version 12 was great, and version 14 was an incredible improvement, but with the release of 14, I found that there had been several issues with the software. There is no longer a notification icon and defragmenting your hard drive is no longer available, you are instead given the option to use a 'Program Accelerator' that appears to be defragmenting the hard drive. The program performed its functions in Version 14 and you never noticed it was there. I use my laptop to play games and I noticed a lot of improvements everywhere, but on Version 14, I notice even more. Almost every time you open this program, you will have to restart your computer because, for some reason, it now requires you to restart the PC for it to complete all of its functions, which is irritating. If you don't open a very specific program, the Boost app will not open. This is why 14 had a separate notification window for it where one could switch modes (I'm quite certain 5), you now have to launch System Mechanic since it's integrated for some odd reason and switch it into the mode that you prefer, and you'll be prompted to restart your computer nine times out of ten when you do this. It's annoying! In response to a request from fans, the web browser booster in the game has been brought back to entertain them because it cannot be used with any version of Windows 7 or higher. It was designed for Windows Vista, and due to the vast improvements in coding and such, it is dispensable, however since people wanted it anyway, it appears they just have the GUI flash some random stuff on the screen to indicate how it is working. Lastly, because I wish I hadn't upgraded from version 14 to 14, I regret doing so. Because 14 was stable and it worked, it was simple and easy to use, and it was easy to set up and use. The developers of version 5 set out to jam all of the new features into version 12 and broke it so they could get away from their parents, but when they realised they had damaged it, they just quit. I would suggest that you do not purchase this program. The new version is bad and buggy.

As Amazon does not distinguish between versions of this product except to state that there are more recent versions available, how can you identify what each version is?

Programs will generally update automatically as soon as newer versions are released. System Mechanic updates its versions quite frequently and it has been useful for me for years.

Could you tell me what version this is?

In System Mechanic 14 you learn the basics of how systems work. A 52 with Tone- Version 3.0 of Definitions is now available. If this is what you were asking for or answers your question, then thank you very much.

I keep losing my version. Why does this happen to

A helping hand
4/5

This was ordered to address some performance issues I was experiencing with my laptop. The download went without a hitch. Several problems I didn't even know I had were fixed. My biggest complaint with my computer has been internet problems, and so far, I haven't had much relief in this area from this product. Adobe flash has repeatedly failed to run when I try to place Farmville on Facebook. There may be something wrong with my device or the game, but the product is still worth the price.

This is a very dangerous program
3/5

After using this, I removed some of the items it recommended and found that my wireless signal strength indicators, my Media Center volume controls, and my PSI status indicators had disappeared. The registry was restored only to add back the controls for Media Center. When you use this program, just remember to back up your registry before making any changes, look at the suggestions it makes, choose the ones that apply to you, and only make a few at a time, skip the automatic fixes. It still crashes, freezes and takes a long time to boot, although it appears to run faster between crashes now. My goal is to make as many changes as the program recommends, but they will be very selective. There are people who noted that they want $30 a year. I am not sure if the program stops working after a year or if it simply.

Those with the Windows 7 operating system should beware! On my XP computer it worked well, but it destroyed my Dell windows 7 Then I was asked to contact Dell (1 hour) to learn that my system was not working
3/5

I made a fool's mistake and tried reinstalling again thinking I made a mistake on the After using System Mechanic to fix registry errors and restarting to make sure errors had been remedied, the computer promptly crashed. The Dell representative told me how to restore my computer to its original state. I had to reinstall all my old programs - I was almost certain that I could not do it unless I had the original Dell software A system mechanic, but not a system mechanic. In any case, this piece of junk is worth the money if you relish the prospect of trying to get your damaged Windows 7 computer back into working order.

System cleaner that is super easy to use
4/5

When you have completed the initial system cleaning, the product will continue to keep it clean every week or two. If it were to run periodically in the background, it would be greatly appreciated.

This product has been very valuable to me over the last couple of years
4/5

I have used it for over a year now and find it This is a product I would recommend, and I will keep recommending it My new subscription has been created. The physical product can be purchased from Amazon for a very good price.

Pros
*Easy to use
*Fixes hard drive errors
*Restores the formatting of the disk I am not aware of anything comparable to this, although I hear there are competitors of note

Cons
*Annoying Taskbar popups that cannot These constant notifications are annoying, even if you actually upgraded the product and extended your subscription
*System Mechanic will consider a system in poor condition for small issues such as a large amount of deleted data in the trash bin or failure to backup the registry I think this is a ridiculous assessment
*After a system correction, SM will often call for a re-calculation When you do not actually wish to use the computer, you can wait for it to boot, which is great if you have nothing to do but sit at your monitor and watch the screen while it reboots In addition, a system restart is recommended after you have fixed any errors on the hard drive When your system boots, it checks your hard drive. This can take a considerable amount of time on a large drive and disrupts your work flow, thereby defeating the purpose of keeping it in good working condition.
