AeroTweak

AeroTweak is a software tool that can be used in order to view particular data regarding your system, as well as tinker with some of its performance and UI options.

Advantages to portable apps

Surprisingly enough, this application is portable, which means that you are not required to go through the installation process. You can take it anywhere with you, and use your preferred settings on any PC you connect to, by simply moving the program files to an external data device, such as a pen drive.
Another aspect that you might find noteworthy is that AeroTweak is not going to create additional files on the hard drive or the Windows registry, as installers usually do. As a result, after you remove it, you know there will be no leftovers.

View info about your PC

First and foremost, you can view information about your system, such as product key and ID, rating, processor, number of cores, total memory, computer name and the list goes on. Furthermore, you can control particular parameters of the desktop and Windows Explorer, such as showing Windows version on the desktop, launch folders in separate processes, show file icons instead of content thumbnails and disable Aero Shake and Snap (only on Windows 7).

Security and performance settings

It is also possible to change settings pertaining to your system’s performance, such as disabling low disk space notifications, Windows startup sound and automatic folder type discovery, reducing waiting time to end services at shutdown and restart, and increasing system cache for applications.
You can also create security restrictions, such as disabling task manager, control panel, command prompt, Windows update, AutoPlay for all devices, the system’s CD burn feature and error reporting, and the list goes on.

Conclusion

To wrap it up, we can safely say AeroTweak is an efficient program. It does not hinder the PC’s performance, it has a good response time, enables you to create a restore point and it is accessible to both power and novice users.
