Our Verdict

Friendly Windows cleanup utility-grade TechieBot canful beryllium useful, but gives advice that sounds like selling hype.

TechieBot has a cute call that makes you think of Saturday morning cartoons. Appealing as IT might be to state "TechieBot, flying now—and hurry!" in terms of effectiveness, this free Windows cleanup utility is a miscellanea.

TechieBot screenshot — Techiebot's clean and uncluttered user interface has a occupation conduct, but its advice raises red flags.

It performs some useful chores, but some program that tells you it's your personal computer expert so says you need to set up Google Chrome and that now is the time to buy a new laptop raises a red flag.

Non that Chrome isn't a worthy browser, but there's one video downloading supply-on that makes Firefox more than of a draw for me. So, skip the Chromium-plate advice. And if you just bought a new laptop computer like I did, skip that advice, likewise.

Then again, TechieBot will download the unloose Microsoft Security Essentials and install it for you—something I do urge to most users.

TechieBot removes unnecessary startup items, only can Be fanatical. It looked in the "run erst" section of the registry and suggested that I disenable few uninstall cleanups before they had runnel. Had I let Techiebot do its thing, I would sustain been left with unwanted detritus happening my organisation. Techiebot volition also straighten out single temporary files.

I'm non certain TechieBot is worth a flavour. Information technology performs a few effective tasks, and the general advice is groovy, but software that recommends products makes ME uncomfortable, even when the recommendations seem level-headed.

Notice: The Download button takes you to the vender's site, where you can download the latest version of the software program.
