The problem
"PC optimisers" sell fear, not speed
Your PC feels sluggish, so you run a free scan. A red screen appears with hundreds of "issues", and the fix button leads straight to a yearly plan.
Thousands of "problems"
Scans that count every cookie and registry entry as an issue, so the number looks frightening enough to pay for.
A yearly plan to tidy up
The clean-up button is behind a subscription that renews whether your PC needs anything or not.
Speed myths
Registry cleaners and "RAM boosters" promise speed they can't deliver, and some can cause problems of their own.
Logged out of everything
Aggressive cleaning wipes cookies, history and saved logins, so the next day you sign in to every site again.
No idea what's safe to turn off
Task Manager lists your startup apps, but not what each one costs or whether you need it.
Changes you can't take back
Switch off the wrong thing and many tools keep no record of what they changed.
Vow PC Speed-Up fixes all of it.
How it works
Check. Explain. Fix.
A plain-words diagnosis in seconds, and one button for each thing that really matters.
- 01
Open it: the check runs itself
In two or three seconds, read-only, you get a score out of 100 and a short list of what costs points and why. Only things that really slow a PC count.
The check runs by itself when you open the app - 02
Fix what it found
Each finding has one button: Review the startup apps, Clean, End it, Switch the power plan, Remove broken entries or Restart.
See what starts with Windows, what it costs and what to do - 03
Undo anything
Every change is listed in History with Undo. Turn on Simulation in Settings to see what each fix would do without changing a thing.
...and the rest: cleaning, safety and a Simulation switch
Features
The fixes that make a difference, and none of the myths
Built around what really slows a Windows PC, measured on your own machine instead of guessed.
A full, honest diagnosis
Startup items, background hogs, junk, free space and drive type, memory, power plan, pending restarts, uptime and two antivirus apps at once.
Startup apps, with their cost
Apps, scheduled tasks and services that start with Windows, with the memory and processor each one uses on this PC.
Advice with a reason
A knowledge base of about 90 common apps says what to turn off and why. Windows' own parts, browser updaters and antivirus are always Keep.
Delay instead of off
Let an app start a minute after sign-in, once the PC has settled, instead of switching it off completely.
Task Manager's own switch
Turning an app off uses the same setting as Task Manager, so Windows and Vow always agree, and the app still opens when you click it.
Cleaning that keeps your logins
Caches and leftovers apps rebuild themselves. Cookies, history, passwords, documents and downloads are never touched.
Live activity, in plain words
What's using the processor, memory and disk right now, with explanations for well-known processes, plus End it and Lower priority.
One-click Optimize
Every recommended fix in one go, with a restore point first and one Undo all. Free users can open it and see the full plan. Unlimited.
Scheduled cleanups
Daily or weekly at a set time, quietly at low priority, with an optional note of what was freed. Unlimited.
Hog alerts
A light tray watcher tells you when an app keeps the processor busy or holds too much memory for minutes on end. Unlimited.
Light & dark theme
Easy on the eyes, day or night.
PC Speed-Up comes with a crisp light theme and a calm dark theme. Switch with one click, or let it follow your Windows setting by itself. It remembers your choice.
- LightClear and bright for daytime and busy offices
- DarkGentle on tired eyes late at night
- Follow WindowsChanges by itself when your PC does

Step-by-step guide
How to speed up a slow Windows PC
The checks a good technician would do, in the order that makes the biggest difference.
Step 1: get it freeInstall Vow PC Speed-Up free
Download it from this page and run the installer. It installs for your account, needs no account or sign-up, and nothing else to install.
Read the check
The check runs by itself when the app opens. Look at the score and the Recommendations list: each item says what it is and why it matters.
Review your startup apps
Open Startup to see every app, task and service that starts with Windows. Turn off or delay the ones Vow suggests, or anything you don't need at sign-in.
Clean up and fix the rest
Press Clean for caches and leftovers, switch from Power saver to Balanced, end a hog, or restart a PC that has been on for weeks.
Check again, undo if needed
Press Check again (F5) to see the new score. Anything you changed is in History with Undo, and Unlimited can do the whole plan with Optimize next time.

FAQ
Questions about PC Speed-Up
Is Vow PC Speed-Up free?
Yes. The full diagnosis, the startup-app manager, the live activity monitor and ending hogs are free with no limit, and 5 speed-ups a day are free (a junk cleanup or a system fix each, reset at midnight). Unlimited, a one-time $4.95 USD payment, adds one-click Optimize, scheduled cleanups, hog alerts and unlimited cleanups and fixes.
Will it tell me my PC has hundreds of problems?
No. Only things that really slow a PC cost points, each with the reason, and hardware advice such as "an SSD would help" costs none. It does no registry cleaning, no RAM boosting and no driver-update upsells, and says so in the app.
What happens when I turn off a startup app?
It uses Task Manager's own switch, so nothing is deleted and Windows Settings, Task Manager and Vow all agree. The app no longer starts with Windows but still opens normally when you click it. You can also delay it until a minute after sign-in.
What does the cleaner delete?
Only caches and leftovers that apps and Windows rebuild themselves, from a fixed list of folders. Cookies, history, passwords, documents and downloads are never touched, temp files changed in the last 24 hours and files in use are left alone, and the Recycle Bin is off by default.
Can I undo what it changed?
Yes. Every startup change, delay, removed entry and system fix is in History with Undo, and Optimize has one Undo all. Cleaned cache files can't be brought back, because they are files apps rebuild by themselves.
How is it different from CCleaner or Advanced SystemCare?
Unlimited is $4.95 once instead of a yearly plan. The score never counts registry "errors" or cookies as problems, startup advice is based on what each app costs on your own PC, cleaning keeps your logins and history, and every change has an undo.
Does it need administrator rights?
Not for the check, your own startup apps, delays, cleaning your junk, the activity monitor or the power plan. Windows asks for permission only for all-users startup items, scheduled tasks, services, Windows' own temp folder and restore points.
Is it safe to install?
Yes. It is made and published by XTO Pty Ltd, an Australian company. There are no ads, no bundled software and no account, nothing is uploaded, and it uninstalls cleanly from Windows Settings, starting any apps it delayed with Windows again.
