VCOM - Fix-It Utilities Pro 7 review

The latest version of Fix-It Utilities offers up a suite of programs to keep your PC running as smoothly as possible. Along with the central diagnostic and maintenance software, a virus scanner and anti-spyware program (courtesy of Trend Micro) are included, which is beyond the standard remit of this sort of package. Of course, most of us will already have these areas covered, but this will doubtless be a boon for some users.

Every facet of the suite is managed from the main menu, which gives you a quick and easy-to-understand readout of the current status of your system protection and system health. There's a set of one-click wizards here, and these run through a library of checks: for example, the Optimise wizard runs the full gamut of hard drive scans and maintenance.

The separate utility programs are then categorised under a number of sub-menus, the first of which is Diagnose. This contains PC Diagnostics, which performs a series of troubleshooting tests on your hardware with a specifiable depth (the thorough tests take quite some time). There's also a System Monitor facility with a huge range of options, so you can keep an eye not just on processor usage but also page-file usage, for example. Whether the average user needs a load of detailed stats is a debatable point, mind you, but they may be useful diagnostic tools from time to time.
