Advanced SystemCare Free 19.6.0.238 for Windows

Advanced SystemCare Free 19.6.0.238 is a PC cleaning and optimisation suite for Windows from IObit, released on 8 September 2026. You can download Advanced SystemCare from IObit's site to remove junk files, manage programs that start with Windows and keep an eye on memory and CPU usage from one dashboard.

Overview

IObit has been developing Advanced SystemCare since 2005, and the program has grown into a toolbox that covers most of what people associate with the phrase PC tune-up. The main screen offers a single scan that looks for temporary files, browser leftovers, invalid registry entries, privacy traces and startup programs that slow the system down. You review the findings and press Fix. Beyond the scan, there is a disk analyser that shows what is taking up space, a startup manager, a real-time monitor that tracks RAM and CPU use and frees memory in the background, and tools for internet speed and privacy. The interface is friendly and aimed at people who do not want to dig through Windows settings themselves. The downside of such suites is that some fixes promise more than they deliver: registry cleaning, for example, rarely makes a noticeable difference on modern Windows, and the free edition regularly pushes the paid Pro version and other IObit products. Treat the tool as a convenient cleaner and startup manager rather than a miracle speed booster.

How to install

1. Download the installer from IObit's Advanced SystemCare page.
2. Choose Custom installation and uncheck other IObit or partner products.
3. Run the first scan and review each category before fixing.
4. Create a system restore point before large registry changes.
5. Disable automatic features you do not need in the settings.

Changes in new versions are listed on the update page.

System requirements

According to IObit, the program supports Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista and XP. The installer is about 60.90 MB according to catalogue data, and the program needs little memory while idle.

Is it safe?

Advanced SystemCare comes from a long-established vendor, but optimisation tools change system settings, so review what each fix does. Keep a restore point, avoid deleting items you do not recognise, and do not install several cleaners at once; they conflict and may remove each other's files.

Price

The free edition covers cleaning, startup management and the basic monitor. Advanced SystemCare Pro is a paid subscription that adds deeper cleaning, automatic maintenance and extra protection features.
