Here's what I think:
My Review:
Did it speed up my laptop? Yep. It's saved me 4 hours of messing with stuff according to the little screen that keeps track of that. It's resolved registry issues, updated software, and done a ton of stuff in the background.
My biggest issue was that it didn't register the AVG virus protection I had on my laptop as that, removed it, and placed Windows in it's place. Something that the developers totally need to work on. Maybe add in some settings to adjust just what Fixico can mess with and what it can't. If that makes any sense.
I also noticed that it restored some setting that I had originally changed on my laptop. Like it turned back on the lock screen (you know the screen that makes you put in your password when your laptop is left unattended for too long). I know if I switch it back it will "fix" it for me and put it back. So that was mildly annoying. But I can deal with it for now. Something else the developers might want to think about putting in their settings.
Overall, I really like the program. I like that it works behind the scenes and fixes things and keeps everything up and running smoothly. I don't like how it deleted AVG or how it messed with my login/sleep settings as I hate having to put in my password (something I have to do since my laptop came back from being "repaired"). But I would totally recommend that you check it out if you need something to help the health of your computer and you don't mind some things being restored to the way they were when you go your computer.
