Ashampoo Winoptimizer 6

Any opinions on whether or not I should install Ashampoo Winoptimizer 6. Free limited offer download. I use ccleaner, Microsoft Essentials, Malwarebytes. Operating system; Windows 7. Browser; IE8.
Would it cause any conflicts? Does it do anything the others don't? If I install do I keep ccleaner etc?
Would be grateful for advice from those more knowledgable than me. that's almost everyone. :)

    the point I was getting towards is the best way to keep your PC in top 'optimised' condition as it was when it was new is to avoid cluttering it up installing/uninstalling/reinstalling programs you don;t really need.

    A good rule of thimb for anything you stumble accross on the internet is asking, do I really need this? if not don't install it.

    No, unless your having a very particular problem you have not mentioned. You already have more than is needed.

    BTW your bucolic response to JasX, with a start date of now means your off to a flying start in your efforts to enlist others to help & support ! :wave:
