“VIRUS/Destroys Registry”

★☆☆☆☆

written by adflack on 15/09/2013

I seriously believe that this software contains a virus of some sort. Either that or it is destroying my registry. Either way, the software does not improve your PC performance AT ALL. I strongly encourage all to not buy this software. There wasn't much to like about it. It was just very poorly developed software.

“Always try before you buy”

★☆☆☆☆

written by outtoosoon on 15/08/2012

A useless resource hog, fortunately I'm cynical enough to always try a pirated reg key first before parting with good cash for a rip off like this. The pirated keys normally become invalid after a month or so but that's OK, it took me a few hours to ascertain that Uniblue is cr@p, just check the windows taskmanager after it's done it's "magic". Sad that so many useless products like this make money for their snake oil salesmen for so long.

“Criminal fraud and crapware.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by FayeKane on 14/04/2012

I came here because I ran a download speed test on several sites, all showing 24.5 MB/s. I ran the uniblue test at http://testinternetspeed.org three times and it always reported ONE MB/s. That's 4% of the actual speed. It also had an offer to try a free trial of their amazing speed-up software and run the test again. I figured that if I did, obviously the new test would then show my full 25 MB/s speed. Rather than download malware that does god knows what, I came here to check the place out. Sure enough, a ripoff fake fraud that damages your computer. My guess is that if I DIDN'T buy it, it would change my setting gs so my PC really was slow, and I'd get messages telling me to buy their junk to speed it up. This is the kind of thing that happens in a so-called "free market": evil people steal from you and hurt you. If the government gave as much of a damn about protecting real people as it does about helping the rich people, they'd grab the guy who's doing this ("Bosse Malmberg"), take all his money away, and put him in prison. But they don't. -- faye kane homeless brain

I completely agree that these are criminals who should be severely punished because they hurt no just us but also the good, rustworthy and reputable programers as they spoil the reputation and credibility of online shoppers - from now on the naive and vulnorable us who are desprate for help as our PC are not behaving properly. I cannotsee how a web site which offers problem causing products can stay in business for any significant length of time, in spite of being found guilty by those who tried their products and got srewed. These people also post thousands of posts telling Internet surfers how great their products are etc. etc. I just do not trust anyone, it is almost cheaper to buy a new PC and use it with no downloads at all.

“A mildly successful solution”

★★★☆☆

written by nixierc on 08/02/2012

Good points: did not make computer unusable Bad points: had to register to fix more errors Well, I downloaded the Uniblue family one day, and this was a probably good solution. It removed various errors successfully, and it was the free version. However, I would not suggest this to family or friends because important files may be deleted, based on previous reviews.

“Ripped Off”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 29/12/2011

I purchased this program under the premise stated that it will speed up my computer. I got my first ever blue screen ever since installing this junk and now I am locked out of some of my programs I use every day. DON'T BUY IT. It will waste your time and money. The programmers need to go back to school if they are serious about writing real programs. Shame on you Uniblue.

“Do not buy!!!!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by NormanHilton on 14/12/2011

Had this for two months and seemed to be working OK apart from PC suddenly switching off in the middle of working on things. Yesterday morning it would not allow me in as a user whatever I did. Luckily I had also set my wife up as a user so was able to get in to the system . Did not feel competent at sorting the problem out so took it to the local computer shop.They sorted out the problem, but it cost me another £30 for the privilege. Also I have lost a lot of the information going back to October when I installed the software. Just rebuilt my contacts list in Windows Live mail which was pretty much decimated. If I had spent any more money would consider suing, when a software package has the name Microsoft attached to it you tend to trust it.

“ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTING SOFTWARE. Don't buy.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by cruiser23 on 03/11/2011

I bought this to make my pc faster. After loading and using it my computer froze. I tried to access their so-called support. What a joke. Sent four e-mails--keep getting the same auto response they would get back--five days now--still waiting. I requested the guaranteed refund--no response. I tried the chat support--another joke. I am now deceived for my purchase. Hope this helps some else. Brian

Hi cruiser23,

Please send me your order number. Having this information I can find you in our system and look into the issue as soon as possible.
Kind regards

“Uniblue SpeedUpMyPC”

★☆☆☆☆

written by loutree on 07/07/2011

Got hooked on broadband speed testing and this program was attached to one. Was going to bin it when fell for soft sell; "Get this program free with one our associate sellers, just pick the product you want." I went for renting "Tesco movies", got my free download code, hey presto, computer would not run properly. Spent two nights trying to uninstall, and control panel telling me that It cannot uninstall all parts of the program but it can if done done manually! Great program for computer nerds who like nothing better than sitting at their keyboard all day trying to make their computer perform as well as it did before installing this program. SHOCKING! RUN THE OTHER WAY!

“Don't Do It”

★☆☆☆☆

written by mekinik on 20/06/2011

This software will virtually destroy your pc. After installation and purchase of the software I spent over 2 weeks trying to repair the damage caused which included complete destruction of my LAN settings, desktop settings, multiple dll errors, crashes, blue screens, loss of boot information, etc. I am now trying to recover my payment and due to the damage this software caused I am forced to use a different computer just to contact the manufacturer. So, if your thinking of trying anything from Uniblue get ready to buy a new PC or pay someone to repair the damage.

“I bought SpeedUpMyPc in a local store - Curry's/PC...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 07/04/2011

I bought SpeedUpMyPc in a local store - Curry's/PC World here in Dublin, Ireland. It presents itself quite clearly when installed and goes through the motions of examining the computer but then in order to REALLY clean up the computer you have to buy a further product that is not indicated on the box when you buy it.
Uniblue needs to become more transparent in it's packaging if it really wants to stay in business.
Not good fellas, not good.
How limited it is for the price paid.

Uniblue's Comment

Written on: 08/11/2011

Hi Guest,
Please note that Uniblue has different products for different customers’ needs:
SpeedUpMyPc optimizes system settings, deletes junk files and improves RAM and CPU functions, injecting a new lease of life into a PC.
RegistryBooster identifies and cleans only invalid entries, whilst leaving correct and necessary entries untouched.
DriverScanner automatically runs a scan of all the hardware installed on the PC and shows a report with a list of outdated drivers. The tool facilitates extremely easy download and installation of the new drivers.
PowerSuite is a powerful combination of all three Uniblue utilities in one. Each utility included in the suite; RegistryBooster, SpeedUpMyPC and DriverScanner can be purchased individually, or users can purchase PowerSuite as a powerful solution to combat PC speed issues, registry errors and outdated drivers.
All informations about ouf different products are available on our website.
If you have any questions you can ask our support here

“I paid my money, got the licence key, ran the scan,...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 04/04/2011

I paid my money, got the licence key, ran the scan, clicked the fix button. That was the end of my PC. After that, disk errors on startup, missing DLLs, no network connections. Managed to copy personal files off to external disk but Windows is busted and will need rebuilding.

“Terrible, horrible, do NOT go anywhere near this...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 30/03/2011

Terrible, horrible, do NOT go anywhere near this company or product. Had a perfectly happy and well behaved system... Was unfortunate enough to buy and install, and it totally screwed up my system - froze up, and would not uninstall till forced shutdown. "Customer Support" are the most unhelpful I have ever come accross - were totally useless. Now internet connection is screwed up, several programs do not work, printer playing up etc etc. have to get in an IT specialist to sort out. I hope they go bust, and soon.

“Unbelievably bad software and support. I installed...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 09/03/2011

Unbelievably bad software and support. I installed SPEED UP MY PC and REGISTRY TWEAKER on my 64 Bit Windows 7 Desktop system and it now thinks it is a 32 Bit Operating System so I can't do anything on it. UNIBLUE only provides links to articles which I can't access on my system. Further, despite urgent E-Mails to them requesting phone support for this catastrophic failure caused by their software they do not respond.

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 22/02/2011

This garbage includes a file called "SUMP.EXE". It would consistently use 46% to 60% of my PC's cpu capacity, making the computer virtually unusable. Had to delete the whole mess. Now I'm wondering about the annual update and re-purchase. I can't believe anybody could actually SELL anything this bad.

Written on: 22/02/2011

I wrote the above review. To give credit where credit is due, I removed the software at 03:00 22 Feb 2011, Tuesday morning. At that time I asked for a refund. By 09:00 (same day) Uniblue had written me for a number that was part of the transaction. By 12:00 I had the paperwork on the refund.
<br/>
<br/>While I did not like their software, I must say that they were "Above Average" on the refund process. As long as the credit appears on my Card statement; and I'm sure it will.

“Speedupmypc is useless and doesnt do anything....”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 18/02/2011

Speedupmypc is useless and doesnt do anything. Actually it does more than nothing, it does nothing AND kills your computer. You are better off saving yourself the trouble and time needed afterwards to fix your computer. fricken piece of garbage my computer was running amazingly, but after running Speedupmypc my programs crash, i'm missing sound drivers, my internet isn't working, and more little things that i'm discovering i'm missing as i go on. Speedupmypc should be renamed to Screwupmypc.

My laptop, which I bought 5 months ago, had worked perfectly until I installed Speedmypc and driver tweaker. They caused my computer to freeze so I uninstalled them restored my system. Lesson learned, what a waste of
time and money.

written by harrybrew69 on 30/11/2010

hi there i too was foolish enough to buy this programme without cecking out the reviews. although its done no damage i feel the programme is set up to decieve you in to thinking there is something wrong with yout pc just to get you to register and pay the £30 or whatever it is now.
since my purchace i have become a little more pc savvy and it is easy enough to perform all the tasks yourself so in conclusion THIS IS A WASTE OF MONEY!!!!
thanks
