Post-virus optimization

In the search for the meanest, leanest computer around, dedicated techies are always looking for better ways to optimize their machines. There are often several parts to this optimization, however, and it can be tiring and complicated to check each individually. What could be better, then, than a program that optimizes everything from one interface?!

That's precisely what Windows Medkit does, a small application that combines multiple management tasks, from start-up and tasks to automatic shutdown and history clearing. The developer maintains that it is mainly intended for post-virus cleaning, but it is actually quite a flexible tool that can be used for various purposes. Windows Medkit also provides a centralized interface for Windows Explorer and other system utilities such as Command Prompt and Registry.

The main problem with Windows Medkit is that it focuses on more advanced tasks. It has no help file, wizards or guide, so unless you know exactly what you need to do, many of the options will be too advanced. If you do know what you are doing, however, Windows Medkit is a handy little tool to help keep your machine in top condition.

Windows Medkit is a flexible tool for advanced care of your computer, especially after getting rid of a virus.

User reviews about Windows Medkit

To the developer. Hi Michael, I'm sorry you didn't like my review, but there are a few things I want to point out.[1] I am aware that Windows Medkit doesn't clean your internet history; I was using "history clearing" as a description of what it does, not a feature name. I also mentioned it as a positive, not a negative.[2] I realize who it is for, and mentioned that it was suitable for more advanced users so people can be sure it is appropriate for their ability.[3] At the time of testing, I found it buggy. Other users may not have the same problem, but as a reviewer, I have to be cautious.[4] You are right in your explanation of why Windows Medkit is always on top, but I maintain as since most of your time with the program won't be spent removing viruses (hopefully), the feature is irritating more often than helpful.[5] Yes, the restart is required by Windows, but as it occurs when using Windows Medkit, most users will make that connection. Again, as a reviewer I have to point these things out so the readers do not feel misled.My review of Windows Medkit concluded that it is a good program for advanced users. You say that it is a good program for advanced users. I don't see the problem!
