WinWash

has windows washer materially changed? when i try to get the updates lately, it asks for ID, passcode, etc.

why i DL the "free trial" off the webroot site directly, the file reads "WinWashReg_EN", and, indeed, asks me for registration #.

what next?

 

oh, i dunno 8-9 years maybe?! :-D

wasn't WW freeware or shareware or the like? seems to me the basic version was always free and good forever.

it's this new version "WW 2011" which is suddenly talking costs and renewals and a "free trial". which in my case didn't even begin....

 

If you want a decent free all-in-one cleaner utility try Advanced Windows Care.

The free (for personal use only) version is good and easy to use. The Pro upgrade (about $15) increases the registry cleaning options.

Hope this helps.

 

OK, i'll have a look at that.

i also have CCleaner and ASC, but i'm used to also having WW in the rotation. prolly the FIRST one i had.
