How to Switch on Turbo Mode
TuneUp Utilities provides you with several options for switching on Turbo Mode and giving your Windows
an immediate performance boost.
In order to provide you with an easy option of speeding up your Windows with Turbo Mode, the TuneUp
Utilities Start Center also provides you with a Turbo Mode switch. This is located on the bottom left in the
Start Center. Once you click on this switch, the computer is put into Turbo Mode.
Alternatively, you can start Turbo Mode by going to Overview of all functions in the Start Center and
selecting the Turn on Turbo Mode entry under Windows.
When you start Turbo Mode for the first time, a wizard will appear to help you create your own customized
Turbo Mode.
Another alternative way of switching on Turbo Mode can be found in the Turbo Mode switch in the
TuneUp Utilities Gadget.
