New Features in this Version
With TuneUp Utilities you can make sure your PC, notebook or netbook is in the best of health – all without
any expensive upgrades! Below is an overview of the most important new features in this version:
TuneUp Program Deactivator with TuneUp Programs-on-Demand Technology™
Now, for the first time, you can completely disable programs and reduce their load on your PC: the services,
startup programs, background processes or planned tasks of a disabled program are inactive until you need
them again. This prevents a loss of performance following numerous program installations.
Improved TuneUp Turbo Mode
The TuneUp Turbo Mode now gives you an even greater performance boost whenever you need it. It now
shuts off nearly 80 hindering factors in the background to provide greater performance for your work, more
fluid gameplay and full control over the hindering background activities.
The New TuneUp Tuning Status
Thanks to the clear graphs, the TuneUp Tuning Status shows you at a glance how well you are using
TuneUp Utilities to optimize your PC. You are shown any remaining potential here by the relevant noti-
fications.
The New Rating Function for Programs
TuneUp Utilities now gives you the option of rating the usefulness of programs and seeing the ratings of
other TuneUp Utilities users. This may help you to decide which programs you really need. So that you can
apply this new-found knowledge immediately, the Rating function for programs is directly integrated in
the TuneUp Program Deactivator, TuneUp StartUp Manager and TuneUp Uninstall Manager modules.
The New-Look Start Center
TuneUp Utilities gives you full control of and access to the most important tuning steps, as well as a clear
overview. The new Start Center is now even more intuitive to operate. Thanks to the arrangement into cat-
egories, you will find the function you are looking for more easily and can check on the current status of
your PC at any time.
The New Overview of all Functions
TuneUp Utilities now has an Overview of all functions on the Start Center which gives you an overview
sorted by application area and quick access to all functions and settings.
