SpeedyPC is a software tool that can scan through your Windows registry and remove any invalid and redundant entries. This will ultimately result in an overall improvement with your PC system’s performance.
SpeedyPC offers the following features and benefits:
- Automatic updates: SpeedyPC will automatically update when there is one available, so you never have to wonder whether or not your software is up-to-date.
- Custom scans: you can customize how SpeedyPC scans your registry by selecting only the items you want to be scanned. There is a list of registry items that you can check or clear during the scan process.
- Automatic scanning with the scheduling tool: with SpeedyPC, you can create schedules so that a registry scan is performed automatically. Using the schedule feature, you can set more than one schedule to run daily, weekly, monthly, at system startup, and more.
- Selection and removal: You can choose which items SpeedyPC has detected after it completes the registry scan. When the results are displayed, you can clear the items that you do not want removed.
- System Tray icon: The SpeedyPC system tray icon offers several handy menu options for quick and easy access to commonly used functions. From the system tray icon menu, you can conveniently open the SpeedyPC main window, scan your registry, and get updates. You can also quickly view the date, time, and results of the most recent SpeedyPC scan. This is particularly useful in getting an idea of when your system was last scanned and if there are outstanding critical errors that need to be cleaned.
- Ignore list: SpeedyPC offers you the ability to ignore items that have been detected after the registry is scanned. In this way these items will be ignored for subsequent scans. There is an Ignore list that you can manage should you want to have these items scanned and removed in the future.
- Automatic repair: SpeedyPC offers you the ability to perform an automatic repair of detected items after a scan. You can configure the settings so that a repair of detected items occurs after each scan.
- Backup and restore: An automatic backup is created every time you use SpeedyPC. You can restore the items that were removed.
- Startup Tuner: SpeedyPC offers quick and easy access to all the programs that are launched when you start your computer. You can enable and disable applications in the Startup list.
Although SpeedyPC provides users with the power to maintain and optimize their computers with ease, every machine is modified to its user’s preference. As a result, there may be times when SpeedyPC removes registry entries which are required by the operating system or other third-party programs. Keeping this possibility in mind, this optimization tool is quite strict with what items are being removed by default.
Should your system be negatively affected, SpeedyPC offers a ‘Restore’ function to restore removed registry entries if your system has been negatively affected.
If you are concerned with running a full system scan, please review the SpeedyPC help file to gain further information regarding the categories being scanned. To access the help file you can click ‘Help’ located on the upper-right corner of your SpeedyPC application, or open the program and press ‘F1’.
Once you have reviewed the help file please select one category and click ‘Start Scan’.
If you experience problems with your computer after running a scan, please follow the instructions below to restore the backup file:
1. Open ’SpeedyPC’ and click on ‘Restore’.
2. Double-click the recently created backup file and click ‘Restore’. To sort the backup files in chronological order, simply click the column heading labeled ‘Date and Time’.
3. Once restored, a confirmation box will be displayed – press ‘Ok’ to close this box.
If you have an idea of what was affected negatively, you can run another scan and, before clicking the fix button, try searching through the listed entries for the offender and then clicking ‘ignore’ or unchecking the box beside it. We understand scanning each category individually may be a bit time consuming; however, it is necessary to identify the category or entry that is causing your system troubles.
