FixCleaner Review

3.5

1.2 (5)

The idea behind FixCleaner registry cleaner is to provide a single program that can diagnose and repair a multitude of system problems and system slowdowns —all in a way that is efficient, effective and fast, supposedly "in two minutes or less." FixCleaner claims to run in real-time after the initial scan, so it can continuously protect your PC against malware, spyware and other harmful bugs that will slow down your computer. The program is backed by a 60 day money back guarantee.

FixCleaner is not your average computer scanner/cleaner. Unlike most which simply check for viruses and registry errors, this program is a very comprehensive package. Why is this important? Because almost NEVER is your computer's "slow" speeds or errors are related to just viruses and registry errors. There can be a whole multitude of error causing problems affecting your computer, and FixCleaner is one of the only comprehensive packages that tackles them all. It tackles the following issues: System Crashes, Slow Performance, Windows Upgrade problems, Computer Freezes, Hardware Malfunctions, Registry Corruption, and Blue Screen Errors.

FixCleaner is compatible with all Microsoft Windows Operating Systems (98, XP, Vista and 7), and installation is a breeze. Within a few minutes you can have your computer scanning for error causing items. Another neat feature is that the company will let you download the program for free, and if the scanner finds that you have errors that need to be fixed, then and only then will you have to pay to have the program fully function (free trial ends upon purchase, and unlocks all features).

Now the nitty gritty, did it actually work for customers? The answer is yes. After running the FixCleaner software, scanning, and removing the harmful items, almost all customers experienced a boost in speed. More specifically, anywhere from 1-4 minutes faster boot times, faster program launches, being able to run multiple programs again with lagging or slow load times, and an overall boost in computing performance. And after tinkering with the "Optimize Memory" feature, customers were able to further increase computing speeds. The customers who were unsatisfied with the program, simply disliked it because they did not want to have to pay for the program. So if you are looking for a quick, comprehensive and easy fix for your computer's slow speed or errors, FixCleaner is the perfect solution. FixCleaner is also backed by a 100% money back guarantee for 60 days after purchase.

I tried to research this product but the many fake reviews and set ups designed to distract you from ordinary, actual users allowed me to give up and go with the credit card before I should have. I'm now buying a new computer as this download made impossible the practical use of one p.c. and one laptop that I had wanted to spiff up. I'm no techie but I'm amazed I paid for something that in quick order screwed up the basic use of my machines. I'm sure the lawyers for FixCleaner would just say " all you have to do is go to these various sites, enter complicated infomation and download new editions of stuff and you"ll be all fixed up" BUT whose got time for lawyers and their technical helpers?. The point was to speed things up and the result is back up and slow down.

When I first got a screen flickering and freeze up of my P.C. i never related it to be the "P.C. Optimization" section of "FixCleaner" causing it. It took me close to two months of time, a new video card, and a total reinstall of the Win7 O.S. before narrowing it down to that one section of "FixCleaner".
That section is vague in what it does and how it does it, so I got their tech dept on chat to help trouble shoot the problem. The first tech I dealt with had me restore my P.C. to an earlier time before I ran the "P.C. Optimization" and then claimed it was repaired. When I said that wasn't fixing the bug in his program he sent me to another tech, who went into my P.C. and "restored" the saved changes that "Fix cleaner" did and told me not to use the "P.C. Optimizer" anymore. I said that is not fixing their programs problem and he claimed his program didn't have any problem. I was the only person to have this problem.
I think I might be the first person to narrow down the problem to their program is more the case. I've asked for a refund and warn people of this possible probem should it happen to them.

Pros

It has some very good options that work very well.

Cons

Their "P.C. Optimization" option is buggy and caused my Windows 7 64 bit machine's screen to flicker and eventually freeze.

I don't see any improvement in the performance of my computer. And I am really mad that the website charged me about double what everyone says it's supposed to cost. Of course you never see a price until it's in the process of supposedly scanning the computer and finding errors. I would be willing to keep it and try it another time or two to see if it delivers, if I had been charged the price I now hear is what it's suppsed to cost.

Detailed Ratings

Pros

The advertisements all sound good

Cons

Charged me twice $54.95 and $9.95 when then price everywhere is $34.95. My computer still gets jammed,I keep getting error messages, get overloaded cpu messages and it is AT LEAST as slow as it ever was.

Basically a waste of my time. Trying to repair a print spooler problem. This program held out the promise of that repair so I downloaded it, installed it and ran it. It did absolutely nothing to solve my problem. Skipped over 95% of it's "features" and prompted me to purchase if I wanted to repair the problems that I originally downloaded it to do.
If you have a little time to waste try it, but get your $35.00 ready if you want it to work for you.

EDITOR NOTE: Most registry cleaners allow you to download it to your computer and do a free scan to identify issues. But if you want to have the software actually fix something, you have to buy it. It is not free software. But you do have a 60 day warranty return that you can take advantage of.
