Clary Utilities - First Look & Review

For years I have used and recommended CCleaner to my friends, family & clients. So when I received an email asking about my thoughts about Clary Utilities, I had to admit that I had not heard of it. So I went over to the Clary Utilities web site for a look-see and decided to download a copy. The download is only 5.67 MB in size and the servers were quick to download the software.

After the download, I installed the software and setup it up without incident. I immediately noticed a simple GUI which was fairly self explanatory. On the Clary site they state the software will:

Glary Utilities offers numerous powerful and easy-to-use system tools and utilities to fix, speed up, maintain and protect your PC.

It allows you to clean common system junk files, as well as invalid registry entries and Internet traces. You can manage and delete browser add-ons, analyze disk space usage and find duplicate files. You can also view and manage installed shell extensions, encrypt your files from unauthorized access and use, split large files into smaller manageable files and then rejoin them. Furthermore, Glary Utilities includes the options to optimize memory, find, fix, or remove broken Windows shortcuts, manage the programs that start at Windows startup and uninstall software. Other features include secure file deletion, an Empty Folder finder and more.

I tried the One Click Maintenance feature which includes the following modules:

Registry cleaner, Shortcut fixer, Startup manager, Temporary Files Cleaner, Tracks eraser & Spyware remover. Clarity is quick and doing its repair process.I believe it is equal to the speed of CCleaner. You also have the option to run each module by itself as well.

So what were my results? My results may not be accurate since I use CCleaner often to keep my system clean. So I did not notice any performance difference. I will admit this is a very simple tool and would be an asset for anyone to use. It would also be a good tool for those who are new to computers because of its simplicity.

I would recommend Clary Utilities. Give it a try and see what you think. Let me know what you think about Clary.
