smc1979 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I dont know much about brothersoft. Softpedia and majorgeeks are great. They all came to me and gave me the rewards, so I added them, didn't really think any further than that on it lol. I checked the alexa rank on them and they where all pretty high, so I thought, sure why not :-) Shane (About Shane) Girlfriend & 5 kids, Needs a lot more coffee.

smc1979 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 That is true, and for a lot of novices who are scared of any new program the awards do make them feel better. It is a pro/con situation.

kroozer Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Now Windows does keep some of the memory in the page file no matter what. So when you lowered the page file it may just be Windows keeping more in actualy memory instead. (I have 8gb of ram and have my page file off and so I have higher memory usage, about 1.7 GB in use at all times) Explanation appears to be logical and acceptable (until I read a rebuttal ).

Willy2 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Did you read this entire thread ? Because the maker of this program (SMC1979) does participates in this thread and provides an answer to your question. Go to: http://www.pcwintech.com/ There're some other great programs (besides Cleanmem) available. Check it out and read the documentation of Cleanmem as well.

Most memory 'cleaners' are complete BS, this one is slightly different to how most work and is actually worthwhile.

Moderators hazelnut Posted November 15, 2011 Moderators Share Posted November 15, 2011 Slightly off-topic, I see Shane's Windows Repair Tool has been used on a malware removal site that I monitor. No we don't usually chase people off here who are posting and asking for feedback about apps they have developed. This memory cleaner seems to have quite a following now.

kroozer Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 My older, slow pc has only 2GB RAM and CM does a good job at keeping RAM usage low. My new, faster pc has 6GB RAM and uses little of it, but I installed CM anyway cos it's a good friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy2 Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 A question for other CM users. According to CC (v3.19), CM (v2.41) isn't started upon start up using the "normal" startup procedure but using the Task Scheduler. Can anyone verify this, using CC v3.19 ? Start cc v3.19, click on "Tools", "Startup" and see what pops up in both "Windows Startup" or ""Task Scheduler". I currently use Win 7 SP 1 with all the latest updates.

smc1979 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I use the task scheduler to launch cleanmem and the mini monitor because of the UAC. It is the only way to have them start without the UAC prompt asking for permission. Shane (About Shane) Girlfriend & 5 kids, Needs a lot more coffee. When people ask "Why fix what isn't broken?"
