About Fix-It Utilities 99

Designed with the purpose of diagnosing and fixing many Windows 95, 98 and NT problems quickly and reliably, Fix-It Utilities 99 delivers the goods in several areas including crash protection; hard disk repair and optimization; Registry repair and optimization; and hardware diagnostics and system monitoring. In addition, file recovery, anti-virus protection, and a wide range of tools are included to enhance Windows operation. As it is the first utility of its kind to support Windows NT, the product can also be deployed on NT workstations or servers, saving potentially hundreds of dollars over buying individual NT tools.

Fix-It Utilities 99 is expected to ship in December, 1998 and will be available at retail stores nationwide as well as directly from Mijenix.
