Registry Cleaner
With Desktop Maestro, you can safely clean, repair and optimize the Windows® registry with a few simple mouse clicks. Problems with the Windows® registry are a common cause of Windows® crashes, slow performance and error messages. Desktop Maestro uses a high-performance detection algorithm to quickly identify missing and invalid references in your Windows® registry. These problems can occur for many reasons including incorrect or incomplete removal of software, missing or corrupt hardware drivers and orphaned startup programs. Within a few easy steps, Desktop Maestro will scan your entire registry for any invalid entries and list the registry errors found so you can choose to selectively clean each item or automatically repair all errors. Desktop Maestro can also make a backup of any repairs made so that you can easily recover any changes if required.

Privacy Protection
The Privacy Guardian feature of Desktop Maestro guarantees your privacy by ensuring that all traces of your online and computer activities are permanently erased and unrecoverable on your PC. Information from every website you visit is stored on your computer and recorded in hidden Windows® locations including temporary files, cookies, system registry and the index.dat file. Web browsers only provide partial privacy protection by allowing some temporary internet files and cookies to be deleted, but Privacy Guardian also cleans data out of all the hidden files and deletes the data securely. It also frees valuable hard drive space and speeds up system performance by cleaning old and unused temporary records. It allows you to simply and securely erase sensitive files from Windows®, Microsoft Office, Netscape, Windows® Media Player and Internet Explorer.
System Optimization
Desktop Maestro provides optimization and performance features that allow you to actively monitor system usage, processes, CPU, memory and disk space. The registry compacting feature analyzes, rebuilds and compacts the Windows® Registry by removing registry gaps and free space, and corrupt keys thereby making your PC start-up quicker and with more available memory. The system optimization function applies a set of tweaks and patches directly onto your PC that are designed to improve system performance and usability. The built-in defragmentation tool provides a streamlined interface to the Windows® Disk Defragmenter which will optimize the files on your disk for faster file access.

Disk Suite is an all-in-one hard-drive management utility that integrates disk optimization and cleanup, defrag and backup in one easy to use package. Disk Suite puts a range of tools at your fingertips to provide optimum system performance and improved stability and security.
Clean and Optimize
With Disk Suite you can safely Cleanup and Optimize your Windows® disks with a few simple mouse clicks. Disks can become bloated with temporary files, log files and other unnecessary data. The Cleanup and Optimize feature lets you safely remove unnecessary files and bloat from your PC without detailed knowledge of the Windows® file system. Removing bloat will not only make your PC perform better, but will also provide you with more free space to store your own files.
Disk Defrag
It’s a fact that fragmented drives drain critical system resources, compromise the ability to access your files efficiently and slow down Windows® start-up.
Defragmentation is one of the best methods of boosting system performance by optimizing the way files are arranged on the disk. By reorganizing the files using the disk defrag feature, the process of accessing those files becomes more efficient, creates a greater amount of free space on the hard drive and allows you to use that space more effectively.
The defrag feature provides you with a powerful defragmentation tool that supports both NTFS and FAT file systems. Different levels of defragmentation are provided in case you just need a quick defrag or you want to schedule a complete optimization of your disk. 
Backup & Restore
The Backup feature allows you to make copies of your data that can be restored in the event that files become lost, damaged or corrupted. Taking regular backup is one of the most important steps you can take to ensure you don’t lose irreplaceable data and files such as photos, documents and other information.
The Backup feature in Disk Suite allows you to tailor the backup to meet your needs by selectively choosing the files to protect. It also allows you to restore files as needed, and verify your backup to ensure valuable data can be recovered as needed.
Diagnostics and Repair
Physical disk and file corruption is one of the main causes of data loss. The Repair feature allows you to actively monitor the health of your disk and file systems and where possible repair corruption and errors. It also allows you to schedule or directly run different types of disk integrity checks and identify future disk corruption so issues can be quickly discovered and resolved.
The repair feature performs integrity checks to check file system structure, surface scans to check for bad sectors and disk errors as well as repair hard drive problems. In addition the repair feature includes hard disk diagnostics and lets you review the information including the S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) status of your hard drive (if supported).
