QuickFix

Most applications you install require special permission from Windows or need to integrate themselves in particular areas. This can lead to compatibility issues, or even system instability. In this regard, QuickFix wants to help you out by putting a set of management and cleaning options at your disposal to keep your PC in good shape.

You’re free to run the application and check out the set of features as soon as download is done. This also means you can take it with you on an USB flash drive to perform cleaning operations on other computers as well. System registries remain intact, further adding to the health status of your computer.

Running it brings up the interface, fitted with several tabs so you can easily navigate through all target areas like start up, running processes, kill viruses, enable/disable, quick clean, and system info. Each area is equipped with a specific set of options that’s usually self explanatory. Not a lot of experience nor effort is required to get acquainted with what’s provided.

However, the visual design leaves a bit more to be desired, and this also has noticeable effects on practicality. In other words, the way items are displayed can create a bit of confusion, and if you don’t pay enough attention, the wrong process, startup item, or system location gets killed or disabled.

What’s more, the application wants to take over from the default Task Manager, but it has more to learn from it rather than enhance it. Nor all processes are displayed, and startup items are either not detected, or shown with missing details.

Truth be told, the application hasn’t received updates in a pretty long time, and there’s a high chance you encounter different errors while running it on newer Windows iterations. For instance, the application gives you the possibility to lock down the Run utility, task manager, and other important areas, but compatibility issues keep it from successfully achieving this.

All things considered, we can safely state that QuickFix is far from living up to expectations, with little to provide that can actually come in handy, especially on latest Windows installments. The visual design is simple, but it becomes an obstacle because of poor display, while various functionality issues keep it from being a pro.
