Great disappointment!!! [Posted on 2008-05-20] I was a user of System Mechanic 6 with no issues. When System 6 helped me through some very serious computer problems I happily upgraded to Pro7. Nothing but nightmares: system lockups, error message one after another on startup and during operation. If Pro 7 was to keep my computer healthy, why didn't it fix these problems? After 3 unanswered requests for help from their "free technical service" I gave up. It took several days to uninstall Pro7 and I am back to using v6. I am using XP with SP2, so maybe other systems fare better.
Mech 7 [Posted on 2008-06-08] worked OK. Then stopped and asked for more money. I did not buy it to get shanghi'ed for more cash. The damn thing should keep working. I did not pay for a time period program. Would not buy again.
avoid [Posted on 2008-06-14] after installing this program, my computer will no longer load windows. This program was supposed to help my computer, but only made problems worse!
Worst Software I've ever tried [Posted on 2008-06-20] I thought I was smart getting rid of my Norton bulkware, but this software suite is definitely not "sweet." It would constantly scan my disk, and whenever it found a corrupt file a dialog box would pop up. Overnight, 20 to 40 of these boxes would pop up. This would usually crash the computer, prompting for a chkdsk on startup.
After removing the software, the registry still calls for smrgdf to be run whenever chkdsk is ran. Since the program is no longer there, the chkdsk will skip. There is a fix for this, but can't I even get rid of this program? The program fooled me, since it has such a nice-looking GUI, but it's pure trash (from any of my experiences with it).
Very risky software [Posted on 2008-07-21] Using this product is like playing Russian Roulette. After using it my Incredimail application was worthless. Can destroy many important system settings.
