Memory Mechanic – Maximize your PC’s free memory

A shortage of memory has a significantly negative impact on a computer’s performance and yet many programs trap a portion of the memory they use, making it unavailable to the system. Memory Mechanic eliminates this memory “bleed” and returns it to the available RAM.

EnergyBooster – Turn off unused background programs

Often, background processes are needlessly running and slowing down your PC. Turning off these unneeded processes frees up system memory and CPU resources, which streamlines your PC and enables it to run faster–especially when running games or other resource intensive programs.

CRUDD Remover – Easily streamline your computer

For certain types of programs, having more than one installed can reduce your computer’s performance. Removing such redundant programs improves the overall speed and stability of your PC—unnecessary processing is eliminated, drive space is freed up, and program conflicts are removed.

Analyze and Repair Your PC

System Mechanic analyzes and repairs your PC. Once analyzed, you’ll get a detailed report of the health status and any problems and can start to fix issues on the spot.

What is iolo's Whole Home License?

The Whole Home License® is iolo’s licensing policy that allows you to install and keep your software running on all of your compatible devices within the same home. Previously, users were allowed to install and license their iolo software simultaneously on a maximum of three PCs. Under the Whole Home License, a single activation key allows you to use your iolo software on all of your PCs, other than any PCs you use for business purposes. What you need to know about Whole Home Licensing

  • You, your spouse, and your relatives living within the same household may use the same license on any number of PCs that you own which are not used for business.
  • For full legal terms and conditions, see https://www.iolo.com/company/legal/eula/

To install your iolo product on additional PCs:

  1. On the additional computer, download the latest version of your iolo product. Choose from the list of downloads offered here.
  2. Follow the steps in the installation wizard, and enter the same Activation Key that you used to install on your original computer.

You can view the Activation Key on the original computer from within System Mechanic > red menu bar > key icon > Activation Key.
