System Mechanic 18.5 introduces a sleek new interface with a modernized, easy-to-read look. 18.5 is about options: users can now choose between the new dark-themed skin or the classic light theme, as well as two different ways to analyze your system, with a Quick or Deep Scan, right from the Dashboard.
Enhancements to NetBooster and a re-introduced Privacy Shield augment the release, delivering more of the speed, privacy, convenience, and flexibility you’ve come to expect.
