Hi Shane hope you had a great Christmas and New Year.

I know you have said that this application shouldn't actually speed up, but with the XP machine i used the update (1.9.3) ALL IN ONE REPAIR & TWEAKS and again it quickened (even on the internet + dial up) up the computer for awhile, but then has slowed again.

I noticed with a closer look there are a lot of "failed" i some of them.

Thank again

Hi Shane looking at the mini monitor while doing a memory & cache clean the cache has the best effect.

I tried to reset from 15 minutes to 5 on Vista but i can't find the feature to change?

Hi Shane thank you

I had thought of getting bigger drives for both, but wondered about the age of both XP & Vista machines.

XP approx. 7-8 years old

Vista approx. 4-5 years old

Taking into consideration this only a recommendation, personally do you think it is worth it.

My thoughts the hard drive etc could go anytime etc

Laptops are cheaper these days.

Thanks again

Hi Shane, hopefully this is the information you required?

Vista
My name user
Size 4.57GB
Size on disk 4.58GB
Contains 3798 files 1008 folders

Default
Size 1.64MB
Size on disk 1.75MB
Contains 42 files 43 folders

Public
Size 6.55MB
Size on disk 7.39
Contains 335 files 43 folders




XP
My name user
Size 443MB
Size on disk 401MB
Contains 1476 files 914 folders

All users
Size 200MB
Size on disk 153MB
Contains 612 files 187 folders

Administrator
Size 18.3MB
Size on disk 18.6MB
Contains 95 files 76 folders

Default
Size 18.3MB
Size on disk 11.1MB
Contains 93 files 74 folders


With all these extra users (when there is only one user on both laptops) would that be a waste?

Thanks again

Thanks Shane, already done that.

Is there anything programs i could delete e.g. Microsoft Windows Framework.net? SP etc that are old versions, or do they have to stay there?

I know you said that it is up to me, but can you see anything like above that that is taking up unnecessary room?

Thanks again

Do you mean disk cleanup, there's no drive cleanup?

Thank you

Hi Shane thanks

I have attached a Word screen print of installed programs (Revo and Add/Remove).

Your advice to delete any that are a waste having on there would be appreciated.

Thanks again

Thanks Shane

It seems to run out of puff after awhile (XP) but starts off good, even on Dialup.

Can i set the setting for cleaning the memory and cache to say every 5 minutes instead of default 15min?

THANKS AGAIN

Hi Shane thank you.

Is CCleaner ok for cleaning files etc?

I just looked on the XP machine and there isn't alot of memory left 6GB out of 35GB. Is there anything i could do to turn things around, taking in to account the laptop is about 8 years old.

There seems to be alot of programs that say are rarely used, last used 3-5 years ago, but i have used them recently, i don't quite understand this.

When i manually use the Cache cleaner the memory  improves, with the mini monitor readings.

Is there a setting to set so it cleans the memory & cache when it gets to a certain number, can't see  this in the help file?

Thank you very much.

Hi Shane thank you, yeah not the best.

I currently use CCleaner and Wise Registry Cleaner, both free, are these ok or do you reccomend something else?

Thanks

Hi Shane any idea on this?

Configuring updates stage 3 of 3 -0% complete

It continues to boot on its own continuously, until it is  turned off manually (power button).

Thanks in advance

Hi Shane thank you

By default it will clean the memory + cache every 15minutes?

Also i noticed that in the task scheduler there where tasks that where left over from programs that i have deleted, would that slow the computer down much?

Yes it is rebooting on its own, keeps doing it.

I don't know which update it will be to "hide", windows are sending alot of updates lately.

Can i setup CleanMem to clean memory and cache on certain times, e.g. boot up, when i can get it to boot?

Thanks again

Thanks Shane

Getting right away from the Vista machine (no hope).

Keeping in mind i am trying to learn, excuse the questions.

With the XP machine why does running the All In One Repair improve the performance as soon as i run it, but after about a week the performance drops off rather suddenly?

Which disc would i run for the SFC?

Thanks again

Hi this is my first post.

I would to start to say thanks to the creator of these programs. I have some questions.

I have two laptops one is XP and the other is Vista.

With the XP machine the difference these programs made was alot more sigificant than the Vista.

Straight after i run the All in One Program the XP machine runs really well (even on dial up internet) but after approximately one week it starts to slow down alot, so i run the program again (same again runs really well) then slows down alot, and so on, and so on.

Is there anything i can do?

I run programs Advast, Malwarebytes on both machines, and scan before i run the programs.

I haven't run the SFC on the XP machine. Which disc and part of the disc would i use?


With the Vista machine the program made hardly any difference, very,very slow. It never use to be.

Thank you very much, youyr help is appreciated.
