One of the menu options accessible from the Dashboard is called the “Toolbox.” I found this to be the most interesting area of the program. Listed here are numerous ways to improve the performance of the PC. Instead of having the software analyze the system, each listed option focuses on a specific area of the operating system to tweak and improve performance. With the Total PC Care Option, there’s a list of adjustments that will be made at once. If you’re not sure what is needed, this is a safeguard to cover all bases of where problems may be. Advanced PC users familiar with more advanced system issues and configuration will be more interested in the Individual Tools menus. Novices could be confused and unaware of how their selected changes can effect the system.

The first option “PC Accelerator“ claims that it’s adjustment will improve operating system performance by up to 300%.
