6.7. PC Analyzer
The PC Analyzer component is able to scan your computer for system problems, and give you a
transparent overview of what might be aggravating your computer’s overall performance. In the
component's user interface you can see a chart divided into four lines referring to respective
categories: registry errors, junk files, fragmentation, and broken shortcuts:
Registry Errors will give you the number of errors in Windows Registry. As fixing the
Registry requires quite advanced knowledge, we do not recommend that you try and fix it
yourself.
Junk Files will give you the number of files that can be most likely done without. Typically,
these will be many kinds of temporary files, and files in the Recycle Bin.
Fragmentation will calculate the percentage of your hard disk that is fragmented, i.e. used
for a long time so that most files are now scattered on different parts of the physical disk.
You can use some defragmentation tool to fix this.
Broken Shortcuts will notify you of shortcuts that no longer work, lead to non-existing
locations etc.
To start the analysis of your system, press the Analyze now button. You will then be able to watch
the analysis progress and its results directly in the chart:
