One for all: Optimal for Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10!

Windows is good - but it could be better! Ashampoo® WinOptimizer 18 does it for you! Because operating systems become slow, faulty and accumulate data garbage over time.

Eight major problem areas of Windows can be analyzed in depth with one mouse click and then solved immediately. Whether data garbage like browser tracks is swept off the hard drive or unnecessary registry entries, shortcuts or services are deleted, WinOptimizer 18 makes your Windows faster, leaner and safer. Optimize security settings, system settings and autostart with one click! With a clean startup and more free memory, your computer simply runs better. Of course, all functions and already optimized for the latest Windows updates!

For up to 10 PCs in one household

If you use Ashampoo® WinOptimizer 18 privately, you can equip 10 of your computers with one license! Buy only one license and your whole family will benefit from a slim, fast and secure Windows! Only for commercial use: one license, one installation.

Brand new: Dashboard overviews

Dashboards are the express route to important overviews and functions. Under Tidy, Optimize and Inform you always get up-to-date overviews of the crucial data in these areas - and have direct access to details and functions! You no longer have to open the modules themselves to always have a perfect overview! Look forward to valuable information, perfectly prepared. Is the registry clean? Are there any superfluous services or is privacy threatened? You can see all this at first glance and with one click you are in the module you are interested in. Experience Ashampoo® WinOptimizer in a whole new way!

Defrag at the latest level

With WinOptimizer 18 we say goodbye to the old Defrag and set off for new shores! The new Defrag does not slow down your computer, but works highly effective in the background! We use the Windows algorithm and enable functions that are otherwise not available! Merge free memory, start Defrag and Analysis automatically and let the low-priority process work imperceptibly while you use the computer undisturbed. And SSD hard drives are also taken care of: With SSD-Retrim the full capacity of the drive is used and performance and lifetime are noticeably increased!

Freshly programmed: Our cleaners!

The cleaners are probably the most popular modules of the WinOptimizer series. That's exactly why we are continuously working on them! With version 18 the new Microsoft Edge Chromium is now supported for the first time. The popular Internet Cleaner goes with new algorithm even more successfully on the hunt for data garbage and knows all locations of the latest browser versions. Let new modules search your system for surfing traces, unnecessary files and orphaned entries in the registry, freeing up valuable space on your hard drive! All functions are also directly accessible via the dashboard "Clean up"!

All system values at a glance

Ashampoo® WinOptimizer always shows you comprehensively and always up-to-date what is going on on your computer. If the health values of your hard disks change, you will be warned immediately and can act in time. Simply identify bottlenecks and sources of error in your system and find potential for improvement. If you want to know which files are using a lot of memory, which components are installed or which processes are running in the background, you will find all the information here! This area can also be easily found via the dashboard "Inform".

The Swiss Army Knife for your PC

Ashampoo® WinOptimizer 18 is much more than "just" a tuning and cleaning software, it contains 37 powerful modules. Whether you want to improve security and privacy or take a closer look at your system with smart analyses - WinOptimizer is the best choice. How you can recover data, securely delete them or largely silence the chattering Windows 10? It's all included! All modules are updated every year and perfectly adapted to new Windows updates. No system optimization software has such an enormous wealth of useful and helpful functions!

Save work and time automatically

With three automatic functions at once, the WinOptimizer 18 takes a lot of work off your hands! With Auto-Clean the data garbage is not only cleaned up - it does not arise at all. If you close your browser or any other program, the automatic broom whirls and sweeps from the hard disk what does not belong there. The Live-Tuner speeds up the start of applications in a clever way and can also be individually adjusted by you to give applications a special priority (and thus more performance). The Game Booster closes everything the system doesn't need to play, so you have full power for the game! If you quit the game, all background services will be restarted and you can continue working normally.

Every Windows Update at a glance

Microsoft Windows always gets new updates and features - and Ashampoo® WinOptimizer too! Our team of developers will make sure that your computer works optimally even if it has just received an update. Windows 10 has received more than a dozen updates within one year and we analyze each one meticulously. Continuous updates keep your WinOptimizer up to date, no matter how Windows changes. Also errors, which result from current updates, are found and eliminated, because WinOptimizer does not only clean, it is also a PC repair program!

Leave unwanted extensions in the browser no chance!

The browser is not only your window to the Internet, it is also threatened by extensions that slow it down or spy on data. Everybody knows toolbars, less known are the countless extensions that make no sense to you, but threaten performance and privacy. Many are not even shown as installed by browsers! The Browser Extension Manager puts an uncompromising end to this. Without exception, you see all extensions installed on your browsers and then decide for yourself! Which extension do you need, where can you find unknown or unwanted extensions? With just one click, unnecessary extensions are deleted and your browser is much cleaner again!

Maximum security and optimal privacy!

Windows collects too much data from you and makes false compromises in security. Especially Windows 10 sends too much data. With the modules Win10 Privacy Control and Antispy, both included in the program, you get back control of your system! Determine yourself what passwords, telemetry data or photos your computer sends - or keeps for yourself. Toughen up when it comes to unwanted PC tracking, personalized advertising or curious programs!

Fascinating insights into an invisible world with the ADS scanner

Do you know of alternative data streams? With this function, data can be saved invisibly bound to a file, e.g. by the user. It can also be used to determine whether a file has been downloaded from the Internet or belongs to the system. The ADS scanner finds these otherwise invisible Alternate Data Streams (ADS) and displays them. Find out which data streams are on your computer and delete dubious entries!

Create maintenance plans in seconds - and then just let it run!

Many customers love the One Click Optimizer and system maintenance as indispensable cleaning and maintenance modules. They find surfing traces, hidden data garbage, superfluous registry entries and system settings that need improvement. With the practical task scheduling function, you can have these functions carried out automatically at freely selectable intervals. Simply keep your computer in top shape!

More power for your PC

Ashampoo system software always stands for high utility value and easy handling. Ashampoo® UnInstaller deletes programs down to the last byte and thus enables completely risk-free testing of any software. Delete even unwanted installed software safely with the multi-stage UnInstaller deep cleaning! Only an up-to-date system is fast and secure - that's why Ashampoo® Driver Updater constantly takes care of your computer. The software records all components of your PC and compares hardware with a constantly updated driver database. If there are new drivers, they are installed automatically. Simply keep your system up to date! Archives in all formats are the strength of Ashampoo® ZIP Pro. Compress and uncompress with the world's fastest ZIP engine and ensure space-saving storage and secure sending!

Maximum performance through first-class system optimization

The makers of Ashampoo® WinOptimizer 18 have come up with a lot of new ideas! Dashboards are your information centers on the most important topics and offer always current values and quick access to the functions! The new Defrag is far more powerful than its predecessor and even offers a feature to improve the performance and lifespan of SSD hard drives. The popular cleaning modules have been adapted to the latest browser versions and find more data garbage than ever!
