NEW: Core Data Recalibrator
Modern versions of Windows depend on a central communication system that allows software and hardware to exchange critical information before making decisions. Because of its complexity, it is prone to various levels of corruption over time—which can result in a variety of problems.
Even the smallest amount of corruption in Windows communication infrastructure can produce false alarms, misdirected files, incorrect reports, confused software, unreliable hardware, and generally unpredictable computer behavior.
Core Data Recalibrator, a unique technology premiering in System Mechanic 12, automatically corrects Windows information corruption. It accurately detects and automatically repairs these problems before they can destabilize a system, keeping Windows and all of your software, apps, and connected devices working in unison so they never miss a beat and your PC is always ready for action.
NEW: Stability Guard
It only takes one problem to stop a PC in its tracks, regardless of how new or powerful it may be. The effects of a single rogue app can range from annoying errors and random glitches to lost work and even an unusable system.
Stability Guard proactively intercepts threats to system stability by automatically watching for rogue programs and unauthorized configuration changes that reduce system stability. It uses complex algorithms to track and correlate the root causes of freezes, hangs, crashes, errors, and restarts.
It also provides a revolutionary at-a-glance view of PC reliability over time, as well as the specific programs and system changes that affect it. Buggy programs, erratic apps and plug-ins, internal errors, system incompatibilities, and hundreds of other elusive issues are now more easily resolved so your PC operates at peak performance and reliability when you need it most.
Enhanced: CRUDD Remover
Commonly Redundant or Unnecessary Decelerators and Destabilizers (CRUDD) Remover™ helps identify and eliminate duplicate programs that overload your system.
In addition to all the programs you install yourself, there’s the software that came with your PC that you may never use, as well as any number of programs that may have installed themselves on your computer without your knowledge.
Now greatly enhanced to detect even more unwanted programs, CRUDD Remover’s™ expert intelligence takes the hassle and guesswork out of finding, classifying, and presenting them all, so you can choose to remove unnecessary software bloat.
Designed for Windows 8.1
Every new operating system presents its own optimization challenges and Windows 8.1 is no exception. New System Mechanic 12 has been specifically engineered to expand on the performance improvements in Windows 8.1 while at the same time eliminating issues it shares with earlier Windows versions all the way from Windows XP and Vista to Windows 7

Chris-PC RAM Booster 2.80 free download





Manages your computer memory and pagefile usage more wisely than before by changing Windows default behavior. Your newly opened games and applications will run better and faster.


description


Got the feeling that your Windows computer is running slow? Too many applications open? Yep we know that feeling. Your computer's physical RAM memory is full and even if Windows uses a virtual memory, stored in a swap file on the hard drive, so that your computer would not get out of memory. You still get the sensation that your PC is crawling instead of running smooth as it should, after a clean re-boot and with only few applications open.
Chris-PC RAM Booster will definitely improve things! Your computer will get a boost, since RAM Booster will monitor the RAM (Random Access Memory) usage and when that gets to a certain low memory threshold, it will trigger the process of freeing up memory for newly opened programs while at the same time move the old programs from the RAM memory to the virtual memory on the disk.
Features:
Faster running applications and games by smartly optimizing the usage of the physical RAM memory of your computer against the virtual memory from the page file of your Windows operating system.
Wide set of options and settings for personal customization of RAM memory usage: including low memory threshold to start the freeing up process, setting for full-screen applications, CPU usage for which memory should be freed etc.
Background running: once installed, started and configured, RAM Booster will run quietly without user interaction and will free-up RAM memory.
Is useful also on server machines (idle or in use), with no user logged in, giving access to more RAM to server programs.
Includes a memory benchmark test to get an evaluation on the stability of your computer and RAM memory.
Provides statistics for a complete overview on your computer performance with RAM Booster active.
Provides dynamic systray icon which displays computer realtime memory usage.
Simple and intuitive interface.
Lets see what actually happens under the hood: when your PC's physical RAM gets full of opened applications, typically Windows starts opening any new applications using the hidden buffer file on the disk called pagefile. Certainly this is a slower process since accessing the info bits on the hard drive is a more time-consuming mechanical process (the heads of the hard-drive move towards the right platter, cylinder and section of the disk surface where the bits are stored) than accessing the memory RAM chips. This means that your newly opened application is now stored in the virtual memory on the hard-drive. Therefore your computer will act very poor in terms of performance.
What to do? Install Chris-PC RAM Booster to manage RAM memory and pagefile usage more wisely than before. RAM Booster will change the behavior of Windows and your newly opened applications and games will run better and faster.
