Best Maintenance Tools for vista

Aside from Vista's standard cleanup, disk tools. Does anyone have any
recommendations of any good programs for Vista?

Just stay away from the registry, unless you know what you are doing.

Re: Best Maintenance Tools for vista

Yes a lot more than you I assure you... I gave the answers and
with all the naysayers it is reasonable to believe the asker knows
he needs to be careful. Oh and by the way, those are all reasonably
safe.

Folks do not gain the skills needed to maintain a computer by never
trying to improve.
