In addition to many other things (all listed below), one feature that stands out is the ability to auto-clean things like log files, temporary files, invalid Windows Registry entries, browsing history, document access logs, etc. Download Wise Care 365 This review is of Wise Care 365 version 6.5.2. Please let us know if there's a newer version we need to review. What We Like Includes lots of free and useful tools. Some tools can be automated. You have complete control over what, specifically, is cleaned. Some tools can be used from the right-click context menu. Can be used as a portable program without installation. Doesn't try to install unrelated software during setup. What We Don't Like Some tools are marked as "PRO" and require a paid upgrade to use. Wise Care 365 Tools Some system optimizers have unique features that set them apart from other similar software. Every feature in Wise Care 365, however, is actually included in similar programs; we couldn't find anything unique that you can't get elsewhere. The following is a list of every tool we could find: Auto shutdown, data recovery, deleted files eraser, disk cleaner, disk defrag, empty file scanner, fast search, file shredder (drives/files/folders/free space), folder hider, force deleter for locked files, internet speed tuner, junk cleaner, memory optimizer, one-click cleaner, password generator, privacy cleaner, program uninstaller, process monitor, registry cleaner, registry defrag, services and application startup manager, shortcuts fixer, startup/shutdown accelerator, system information tool, system optimizer Some other tools are included, like an advanced privacy cleaner, big files manager, and context menu cleaner, but they aren't free to use. A Free PC Cleaner? Is There Such a Thing? More Information Runs on Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP You can get a portable version of Wise Care 365 from the General settings tab of the installable version It can clean registry errors and delete temporary files on a schedule Custom folders can be cleaned along with the system cleaner Custom folders, files, file types, registry keys, and domains can be excluded from being cleaned Instead of having to create a registry backup manually, Wise Care 365 builds one automatically before cleaning out the registry The registry cleaner can optionally be setup to scan much deeper than the default setting will You can use it to remove files that came pre-installed with Windows and other useless files like installation files, cache files, help files, and sample media files, all in one go A "Floating Window" lets you manually optimize the system memory whenever you like, or you can set it up to do it automatically when memory usage crosses a certain threshold Uses the Random Data method of data sanitization to completely erase individual files and/or entire hard drives Thoughts on Wise Care 365 This program may be a little low on features compared to other system optimizers, but it has a really nice memory optimizer that shouldn't be overlooked. Wise Memory Optimizer can run when you first log on to Windows, is minimized to the system tray, and can be executed when memory usage exceeds a particular amount. Memory can even be optimized with this tool when the computer is idle. We like this feature because you don't have to manually run it. It sits in the notification area constantly and doesn't seem to use very many system resources. You can run it manually, but configuring it and forgetting about it is the easiest way to use it. As we've written above, a disk cleaner is included. It's a little different than similar programs because there's also an Advanced Cleaner that can scan for certain file types. For example, you can scan all attached hard drives for file types like FTS, DMP, thumbs.db, BAK, and LOG. These are normally associated with files that you don't need because they're either temporary or backup files. It can also find empty files and invalid shortcuts. As you make your way around the program, you'll notice a PRO label on several buttons. This means that particular feature is only available in the upgraded, paid version of Wise Care 365. Most of the professional features are actually options you can find in similar free programs. When you close the program, an advertisement to buy the full version is oftentimes displayed, which can be annoying if you never plan to upgrade. But overall, if you're looking for a simple-to-use free system optimizer, give it a try. Download Wise Care 365 Was this page helpful? Thanks for letting us know!
