    I need some new and good free system utilities as Tune up 2010 doesn't work.

    Thanks

    Maybe just leave the OS install as it is? That's much more beneficial than any "break your PC software" in the long run.

    What for? It makes very little sense to ask for "some system utilities" without any further specification. Plus, given your similar post asking for some registry cleaner, chances are you don't need any of this. As a general rule, if you don't understand what it does, then you don't need it. :cool:

    specifically what the heck are you trying to do? erase all install details of a demo program that has outlived it's legal testing period so you can re-install it?

    The only "tune up" one can do/need for windows7 is disable all services he/she not gonna use to improve system performance.

    OK this possibly means illegal by NBR standards.

    Also, I'm pretty sure a registry cleaner doesn't help here.

    Thread closed. This is indeed illegal by NBR standards. Please do not create another thread, you other thread have also been closed.
