Socks: Optimize and maintain OS X
Socks is a utility program developed by MKD Software for troubleshooting, maintaining, optimizing, and customizing OS X. It offers a simple interface with an impressive number of customization options, making it suitable for both beginners and experts. With Socks, users can automate maintenance tasks, such as repairing damaged volumes and corrupt file permissions. Additionally, it allows users to tweak Spotlight settings, rebuild volume indexes, clean the system, optimize internet connection buffers, and change the look of OS X.
One of the standout features of Socks is its ability to remove document and web usage history, providing users with a way to hide their tracks. However, it is worth noting that Socks does not offer many advantages over similar tools like Disk Doctor. While it may not match up to more comprehensive maintenance utilities like TinkerTool System, Socks still provides a nice and comprehensive solution for optimizing and maintaining OS X.
Changes in the latest version include a bug fix that resolves the issue of some users' admin passwords not being remembered.
