> 24 hourI started out with System Mechanic 10 (downloaded directly from IOLO) and they gave a free upgrade to v11, now on 11.5. I have been using it for about 5 months now. Used successfully on machines running Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. I have ZERO complaints. Key issue to be aware of is if you wish to run a separate anti-virus program (I prefer Norton Internet Security), do not install System Mechanic Professional or Premium because it wants to run its own anti-virus feature and will fight with your other one. With that consideration, System Mechanic (Basic) 11.5 has performed flawlessly and resulted in noticeable speedup. Cleans out clutter, fixes broken shortcuts, allows you to easily identify and choose what programs load when Windows starts (left neglected, the garbage really adds up, robbing your system resources and causing other problems), keeps Windows Registry cleaned up (necessary after installing/uninstalling programs), fixes drive errors, basically everything in the way of system maintenance is under the hood of System Mechanic. I also used it to remove a very stubborn WebRoot Spy Sweeper from a laptop I inherited; it would not turn off, would not uninstall by any typical means (run uninstall ineffective, Windows Control Panel program removal ineffective) but System Mechanic did the job and cleaned up the Windows Registry afterward, too. This saved me a big fee from on-line tech support.

> 24 hourIolo will lure you into believing you have purchased a computer maintenance package that you can use for a one year term when it actually will begin billing your credit card monthly. I totally did not expect this! It also opens your computer and email up to a barrage of offers for additional services not included in the original package. Im very very disappointed in the ethics of this company and will never associate with them again.

> 24 hourAfter running System Check, which reported tons of issues with my PC which it recommended System Mechanic to fix the problems. I downloaded System Mechanic and installed it; it would not run. I uninstalled it, and called Iolo Tech Support. The rep downloaded and installed System Mechanic again, and still it would not run. So then he runs Malwarebytes on my PC, and says the problems that it is reporting are the reason that System Mechanic will not run. He offers to fix my PC for $200, which entitles me to one full year of support...he offers over and over and over. I refused, and ended the call. BTW, my PC is normally protected by Microsoft Security Essentials, so how did these viruses and other issues get into my PC?!

> 24 hourInstalling System Mechanic Professional destroyed my computer. It corrupted my registry. It deleted all my Windows 7 restore points. I was unable to access any of my files. Even though IOLO customer service acknowledged their software was responsible for rendering my computer useless, they claimed they have a clause in their license agreement that holds them harmless for any damage caused by their software. They refused to pay the $120 it cost me to have Tiger Direct format my hard drives. All my files were lost. I had two mirrored hard drives mirrored with RAID 1. Both drives were rendered useless.
