The result was 1550 issues found, but the interface was greyed out and the health meter hidden until I activated the software. Although that sounds like a lot, Utilities Ultimate stated that the system status was good before taking any action.

So, was the original diagnosis wrong or did removing files make the system worse? I have to assume the former but this inconsistency doesn’t inspire much confidence in that speed dial graphic. The interface is otherwise easy to use and any 360 users out there will feel right at home here. Installation is easy enough and you’ll need 100MB of space available, a little more than some rivals but less than others.That’s the worst out of the six PC cleaners I’ve tested recently (under identical conditions) and a long way behind the next worst, which was MacPaw CleanMyPC at 1.65GB.

Oddly, Utilities Ultimate scanned my test laptop as soon as the application loaded and before I could even put my product key in. An eager beaver then, but that scan didn’t take long, giving me a summary within a few seconds. This feature scans for devices on your internet network that are using much bandwidth and causing congestion. Afterward, you can shut off these devices to improve your network performance. Norton Utilities’ file shredder wipes away files to prevent anyone from retrieving and accessing them. It’s an excellent feature for people who work with sensitive files, for example, doctors, therapists, and school teachers. It’s not possible to give figures of the impact of this, partly as my test laptop has high-end specs, but this could be a real boon for cheaper laptops and PCs with basic components. PriceNet Booster - Optimize your internet connection for the best speed and stability available based on your configuration using hidden Windows™ internet setting. Extensive customizability is the primary desire of many Windows users, and this tool helps with that. Your Windows OS has many settings that you can not easily access. This tool gives you easy access and lets you customize your settings extensively. Before Norton Utilities scrubbed the laptop, it achieved a 5,914 Geekbench score and booted in 50.2 seconds. After using Norton Utilities, the GeekBench score rose to 6,008. That's a definite improvement, but one that's still more than 200 points short of Iolo System Mechanic's 6,229 mark. On the other hand, the notebook's boot time decreased to just 38.3 seconds. That's almost one second slower than the result acheived with System Mechanic, 37.5 seconds.
