    Hi Friends:

    I'm testing the following Utilities on Windows 8 Pro 64 bits:

    - CCleaner v3.22.1800 (Free) works great as Cleaner & Registry
    - Windows 8 Manager 0.3.0 (Beta), looks good
    - O&O Defrag Professional 15.8 Build 801 x64 (paid), it's totally compatible with Windows 8 and it's working great

    Thanks for share your experiences & recommendations

    Good to know that about O&O because I have Raxco Perfect Disk and Windows 8 refused to allow it to install even in compatibility mode.

    I use slimcleaner by slimutilities. It cleans registry and a nice defragger built in.

    Ill tell you why I think they harm more than fix ,because the windows s kernel is closed to other ,so the tools are just the result of their self researches !

    Tuneup Utilities 2013 is one of the best softwares for Windows 8. It helps clean your system from junks etc. Although it is not free, but patch is easily available via torrent. Get it from- tune-up.com
