Dozens of optimization and repair apps packed into one program
Wondershare PowerSuite is a powerhouse of an application designed to carry out multiple functions that usually only feature in several different products. From computer optimization to password recovery, the program has a tool for almost every occasion.
Wondershare PowerSuite has so many functions that it could easily be called confusing. They are broadly divided into two areas - WinCare and BootCare. Wincare configures and optimizes your computer with a variety of tools such as registry cleaners, junk file removers, and file utilities, while BootCare performs more complex tasks that require the computer to boot from a special Wondershare CD.
When you install and start Wondershare PowerSuite, it automatically scans your computer and awards it a Health Index, letting you know which areas need attention. Unfortunately, the areas that do need attention must be fixed individually - there's no "repair all" button - and sometimes, depending on the tool, a second scan. The Wondershare PowerSuite scans and fixes are thorough and well-documented, but slow.
The Wondershare PowerSuite BootCare feature is a little more complicated - it is only explained briefly that you must burn the CD to disk yourself, boot from it, and then navigate its functions in BIOS. Wondershare PowerSuite is attractive to look at and easy to use, but not all users will want to take on the more advanced demands of BootCare.
