FixBee Disk Optimizer 1.0
Defrag and clean up your hard drive with this optimisation tool

FixBee Disk Optimizer is a simple PC speedup tool which includes both drive cleanup and defrag features.

The program also includes a browser toolbar which it'll install by default, though. If that's a problem for you then be sure to choose the Custom Installation option and during setup and clear the relevant boxes.

With that out of the way, you can get on with the process of defragging your hard drive. This works much as you'd expect: it analyses your drive, reports on the degree of file fragmentation, and tells you whether a defrag is necessary. And if it is, then a click on the Optimize button will make this happen.

And the "System Cleanup" option is equally familiar, scanning your hard drive for redundant files, listing anything it finds and then deleting them all with a click.

This is all very easy to use, then. The program looks good, too. And both the defrag and cleanup modules have flexible schedulers, so it's straightforward to have them run unattended.

Unfortunately FixBee is also very basic. The defrag module offers no real controls over what it's doing, and the cleanup tool found very few files to delete on our test system. Perhaps this will improve in future versions, but right now you're better off with other PC maintenance tools.

Verdict:

FixBee looks great, but is short on functionality - other free defrag and cleanup tools offer far more PC maintenance power

Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 (v11.0.6)

Free Full Commercial Software

Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 is a compact, simple, but surprisingly feature-packed disc burning suite.

The program makes it easy to create simple data discs and audio CDs, for instance: just drag and drop your files onto the list area and you'll be burning the finished disc in a couple of clicks.

That's just the start, though. Burning Studio 2013 can also create data discs with customised, interactive multi-page menus, perfect if you'd like a more professional way to share and present the disc contents.

A built-in backup tool allows you to create backups which may be encrypted, compressed, and span several CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays.

And there are modules to create VCD or SVCD video projects; burn video DVDs or Blu-ray discs from prepared folders; create, browse or burn disc images (ISO, CUE/ BIN and Ashdisc formats are supported); copy discs, erase them, design and print disc covers, labels and booklets, and more.

The focus throughout is on ease of use, though, and so Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 remains very straightforward, whatever you're doing. Most disc projects are created via the same simple interface, and for the most part all you have to do is drag and drop the necessary files. But experts will find more advanced options are only a click away, and if you need to then you can set ISO and UDF version, enable Joliet, make a disc bootable and more.

Note the download here will take you to the Downloadcrew Software Store where you can download Burning Studio 2013.
