Review of the Uniblue PowerSuite 2012

Computer optimization is a necessary job that needs to be done to keep any Windows PC running at its peak performance.  You would think that a computer could take care of itself by now but that is still not the case.  The Operating System, by design, remembers things.  The problem is that it does not know how to forget which creates clutter in the system, which in turn can slow a PC to a crawl if it is not cleaned out periodically.  That maintenance, if done manually, can be a daunting task.  This is where the UniBlue PowerSuite comes in handy.

The PowerSuite 2012 combines three essential tools to keep a system optimized. 

SpeedUpMyPC does just what the name suggests, it speeds up your computer by removing forgotten and unnecessary files, settings and processes that slow the PC down. See the SpeedUpMyPC 2012 Review 

RegistryBooster cleans the registry of unneeded entries that can make a system slow and unstable.  The registry is just like your brain and it is a terrible thing to clutter. See the RegistryBooster 2012 Review 

DriverScanner is the third piece to the puzzle. This program scans the PC for outdated system drivers that make a computer unstable and unresponsive and finds new and updated drivers to correct the issues found. See DriverScanner 2012 Review here. 

This review of the Uniblue PowerSuite 2012 will show the highlights of the powerful optimization suite. 

When the PowerSuite is first started, it gives you the option of when to scan your computer with the individual programs.  The settings can be changed to your liking but the defaults look good to me. 

Once the program was launched, it automatically started to scan the computer so I figured that I would let it do its thing.  Looks like it found 338 Registry Errors, 7,152 speed issues and 11 outdated drivers on this system. Here are the results.

In order to fix the recommended problems, the individual applications need to be launched.  I started with RegistryBooster.  The program tells me that my Registry is having a cloudy day with the damage level at High with 338 errors so I smacked the Fix Errors link to start the job.

When it was finished, I went ahead and fixed the speed and driver issues as well.  I ran all of the apps twice just for the fun of it and SpeedUpMyPC actually found a couple thousand more errors to fix, it fixed them as well.  DriverScanner took a couple reboots to finish installing all of the drivers but that was expected.

RegistryBooster, SpeedUpMyPC and DriverScanner all have many different management settings to use the programs as you desire but the PowerSuite, when installed, takes over and gives you all of the tools in one easy to use interface. All of the issues were fixed in a matter of minutes and the results are shown on the Uniblue PowerSuite main page.  All is sunny, all is well.

As you can see from this review of the Uniblue PowerSuite, it is a very easy to use program that fixes just about any imaginable problem that may plague a computer system.  Driver updates are a necessity but a pain to do manually, cleaning out the clutter that the PC accumulates is quite a task but still needs to be done and cleaning out the computers brain, or Registry, should not be done by the inexperienced but needs to be done to keep your computer running fast and stable.  The PowerSuite does it all and it is a Microsoft Gold Certified utility so you know it can be trusted.

As with all of the previous reviews of Uniblue products, The PowerSuite does what it claims to do quickly and easily without harming your computer and is a reasonably priced utility.  For that reason, the Uniblue PowerSuite gets an Honorable Brontobyte on a scale of Bytes to Brontobytes.

The three programs can be purchased separately but those programs combined make one heck of a PowerSuite of performance enhancement tools.  The PowerSuite saves you money too.  Individually the programs are $29.95 the suite is only $59.95 – a no brainer.
