3. Scanning and fixing
PowerSuite offers three scans that target different areas tied to your PC’s performance and stability:
1. Registry scan
Scans registry for errors
2. Speed scan
Scans system and resource allocation settings for issues slowing down your computer
3. Driver scan
Scans system for outdated drivers
Upon launching for the first time, PowerSuite will conduct all three scans and display, as results, the number
of registry errors, slow-down issues, and outdated drives affecting the performance of your PC. To view
more detailed scan results, you will need to summon the standalone application by clicking on the relevant
Launch application
button.
The next section deals with the functionality of the individual standalone applications.

locations. To defragment your registry, click on the
