TuneUp Program Deactivator Enables PC Users to Enhance System Performance Without Uninstalling Programs

Online, January 17, 2011 (Newswire.com) - What: Many PC users understand that the more software installed on their computers, the slower the systems will get; however, they are often hesitant about uninstalling programs that might be needed at a later time. PC optimization specialist TuneUp figured out a way to solve this issue with TuneUp Program Deactivator, which allows PC users to completely turn off unused programs and drastically reduce the load on their computers. Whenever users need the programs again, they can easily turn them back on. This feature prevents having to uninstall and reinstall programs, and empowers PC users to avoid system performance losses caused by having too many programs installed.

On its blog, TuneUp offers a behind-the-scenes look at why and how the company created TuneUp Program Deactivator. The company also explains why TuneUp Program Deactivator is beneficial for PC users, and reveals the results of several benchmark tests, to show how this feature can help bring new life to PCs that have been bogged down from having too many programs installed.
