Your Computer: programs to have on it...

Just a reminder, Folks - Here's three very useful programs to have, and they're all free ones. Just follow the links here to their home pages, to download your own copy.

 Secunia's Personal Software Inspector better known as 'Secunia PSI' will automatically warn you and update your other programs not handled by Windows Updates, so that you will always have the latest updates for those others, and be more secure.

Auslogics Disk Defrag is in my humble opinion the best and probably quickest disk defragmenting and optimizing program there is anywhere. You can go into its 'action' column and choose what you want it to do, beginning with Analyze to find out if you do really need to use it. You can then watch it in action as it goes through the segments and does its thing. Or you can set it to a schedule to run automatically, or you can include it in Windows Explorer's right-click menus. It's a very good program.

Glary Utilities Free is the free version of this program, and it can clean up and tune up your computer with one click of your mouse, and easier than that, you can't get. And the good news is that it really works. I've been using it for years, and it really does what it says it does, and your computer will be cleaner and will run better.

I've mentioned these before, but quite a while ago, so I'm doing it again in case you've missed that earlier one. By using these programs, you can keep your computer up to date, and keep it free of junk files, and keep the files that it does have unfragmented so that programs work better, and files load faster because they aren't scattered around on the hard disk in bits and pieces. These programs can help you to keep your computer out of the shop and ready to work when you want it.
