If you’ve ever run the Windows XP’s Disk Cleanup utility, you probably discovered that your temporary files occupy a significant amount of space. You might select the Temporary Files check box in order to allow the Disk Cleanup utility to delete the files in the Temp folder, but the Disk Cleanup utility will not remove all of the files.

TotalIdea’s TweakVI (free basic edition) makes up for the lack of a “TweakUI” for Vista.

Microsoft does not offer a TweakUI equivalent for Vista, but a company called TotalIdea comes to the rescue. Their TweakVI comes in three editions (basic, premium, and ultimate). The basic version is free and it is roughly the equivalent of TweakUI for XP. For XP users, TotalIdea also offers Tweak-XP Pro, which goes beyond what TweakUI can do. Tweak-XP Pro has a free trial that’s good for 30 executions. Perhaps the most interesting feature of Tweak-XP Pro are the cleanup functions (unnecessary registry entries and unnecessary files).

The same way you take care of your car,with its oil changes,tweaks and tune up you should take care of your pc.Your computer (specially your Operating System) need alot of care,it is constantly working by modifying files,sometimes those modifications cause errors which then your pc logs and starts to slow down your computer, same has with the registry when it gets cluttered and alot of other sections.These are some good free utilities I have found, I think they do a pretty good job but to tell you the truth I dont use any, I always say you can find freeware thats equally good to paywares if not better,it doesnt look like the case with this.
If you have any extra cash,I really would suggest you buy TuneUp Utilities,I use it on a daily basis and might post a review on it soon.
