dave237 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 TuneUp Utilities 2008 is no long support win 98. Neverthless I try it on my win 98 se and find that some functions act fine (registry cleaner for example) and some not (1 click maintenance). Is there a way to make it all worked well?

patchworks Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 TweakNow PowerPack dropper 98/me support in the 1.7 version...It would be great to have an "oldware" tweak software collection archive website !BTW, we still have the good old WinBoost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realdealrep Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Jv16 Powertools (macecraft.com) gets rid of register problems and useless files a LOT more effectively. It cleans out cache memory. It will speed up your computer. I've used it for months. It's easy to use and doesn't crash your win 98 system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannie Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) No need of updates when old versions run OK, being your OS the same. In many cases new versions are not good for Windows 98 SE users even being compatible: I've had myself some bad experiences with software "for Windows 98", which sabotaged my computer. Well, I suspect maybe it is a way to "convince" you to buy a new machine without spending a cent in ads. I always seek the best version for my needs, no matter if I find it to be the oldest one. Good old versions are also Easy Cleaner 2.0, BoostSpeed 3 and SpeedStartup. A very good freeware new registry cleaner is Glary Registry Repair 2.8.

etalmar Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) A very good freeware new registry cleaner is Glary Registry Repair 2.8.I would respectfully disagree with that suggestion. I tried this program, liked it well enough, but after I ran Spybot, it found the following malware ...Telecom/Malware!FlashDollars.RegistryRepair: [sBI $9FE4E5EC]Program directoryUse this program with caution! I immediately deleted it after Spybot S&D detected this malware.You could try RegSeeker 1.55 as an alternative. I use it every day and it works quite well without any glitches or crashes.
