Update: The developer of WinUtilities Professional Edition has canceled free updates. Please see http://dottech.org/announcements/17765 for more details. v9.81 is still available for free via this promotion, though.
Update: Apparently the download of WinUtilities Professional Edition now includes Ask.com toolbar. Be sure to uncheck the options to install the Ask.com junk during installation if you don’t want it!
Long, long time ago in a galaxy not-so-far away, dotTech was one of the first (besides GOTD of course) to give users the ability to grab WinUtilities for free. Now YL Computing and dotTech have decided to further our cooperation and allow dotTechies to get WinUtilities Professional Edition for free!
For those people that have been living under a rock for the past two years (=P) don’t know what WinUtilities is, let me give a quick recap. WinUtilities is a system care suite which has over 20+ features which users can make use of:
Feel free to read my full review on WinUtilities Professional Edition to learn more about WinUtilities in detail.
WinUtilities comes in two editions: Professional Edition and Free Edition. Free Edition is, of course, freeware so users can grab it whenever they want. Professional Edition, on the other hand, costs $49.95. Now dotTechies can get Professional Edition for free! To make deal even sweeter, dotTechies will all receive free updates for Professional Edition!
That being said, to get WinUtilities Professional Edition for free follow these simple directions:

Sorry, not true. Do you know how many websites offer WinUtilities for free? Just by searching for “free” on the WinUtilities website, I have come up with this list of no less than 9 other websites that have the same offer (dotTech not included):
AppFair.com
BestSoftware4Download
BurnWorld
Das-download-archiv.de
DiscoverValue
DotTech
Ivertech
ProgrammiPerPC
Softpedia
VideoConverterPlus.com
Makes you wonder if YL Computing really wants you to pay for WinUtilities Pro. . .
WinUtilities stopped accepting the username & password posted here. Instead it shows that 31 days of the evaluation period0 has expired.

This is a great program and love those free updates. I started with the free download and now I’ve got the pro edition and believe me since installing this program, my computer has been religeously cleaned and tuned to peak efficiency. Thank you for this fantastic utility. PS great diagnostics too!
Ashraf’s code no longer works, but the Softpedia code still does.
Go to their website here

I just tried to install this – it works fine for me o_O.
the link to download the portable version of WinUtilities Pro is not valid.
Is it still possible to get it somewhere?
thanks
I tried to register using your code listed, and they said it was invalid! ??? This was for WinUtilities Professional Edition
@blue: Thank you fort the information
Thank you Ashraf ,but it’s true your code is not working,,
Thank you Blue ,,softpedia code worked
Ashraf,
“WinUtilities Pro”
YL Computing have definitely pulled the plug on this program, I have tried everyone of the sites by D Stroud #101, and get the message 31 days of 31 days evaluation period over and the codes are rejected. If the program is no longer available as a freebie, then it should not still be advertised as though it still was on your site and others.
If YL Computing is telling “dottech.org” and other sites that the program is still available free, then that is dishonest, and they should be told so. If it’s free great, but if it isn’t, don’t mislead people into wasting their time installing it.
Users of “dottech.org” and others like it, go to the trouble of trying out and finding potential bugs in the software of lots of developers, so YL Computers and others should remember this when they want feedback on their products.
Shraf’s code still works great.
There must be another problem for guys who cannot use the code.
Thank you so much.
I give you 1000%
Thank you Ashraf for all your help!!
Be sure to take your vitamins and take care of yourself!

WinUtilities 9.78 installed fine, registered fine. Looks good, and I’m somewhat surprised how similar to AShampoo WinOptimize 2010 that it looks downloaded from their site. I’d tried a GAOTD of WinOptimize 7, but it seems to be time-limited. I think I’ll stick with WinUtilities. Good job, dottech, and thank you heaps for this.
Win Utilities Pro version installed (albeit older ver 4.78 from provided Cnet main download link) and got registered with the above provided code on my comp- Win7/i5430/4GB RAM/500GB HDD.
regname: dotTech User
regcode: C1H0L9-B93A-90C9-1465-4935-W6Y1L3
Had to re download and re install the latest version 4.79 via the Mirror link.
Thanks Ashraf…got to recently know your site apart from the known GOTD.
Just d/l and registered fine.
Looks very similar to Glary Utilities only with a bit more of a polished interface.
Thank you Ashraf!!!
I had been using CCleaner and Eusing Free Registry Cleaner to deal with the Registry. A couple of days ago Eusing Free Registry Cleaner found about 87 registry errors and cleaned them up so I got a real shock when, thanks to you, I got Win Utilities Pro version free and when I used the Registry part of it it reported:
“Registry Cleaner has checked your system for errors. A total of 8755 were found.”
The html report of those individual errors that I had Win Utilities Pro save to my desktop was a whopping 2.76 MB because there were so many errors in my registry!
I allowed the program to fix the problems after the program set a restore point. The errors are gone now thanks to Win Utilities Pro version and you!!!
I downloaded Windows WinUtilities Pro from Ashampoo,somehow I lost the program somehow.Then I noticed you were advertising WinUtilities Pro for Free.I opened up the software put in the reg code which worked,but you had to restart my computer to complete the installation.When I went back to open the site (from your sitr) and it says my trial period was over and have to purchase the Product.I have tried countless times with the same result!!Any ideas?
To update the software do i Uninstall then Re-Install or just install the new version with the previous one still Installed. will it just remove it after install ???
Thanks,
It worked for me.
the new version of winutil pro 9.82 is not activated.is there some problem or not,maybe somebody knows something about
thanks
Hi. Don’t work with the 9.82
dotTech User / C1H0L9-B93A-90C9-1465-4935-W6Y1L3 seems not to work with v. 9.82
This deal is all over the web now!

@Tired: Nope, only 9.81 and down. There’s a link to a 9.81 installer above so if you need to reinstall you can, just remember to uncheck the Ask.com toolbar.
@DiMa, @Lilangel10 and @Tired: Please download v9.81 and use it – the developer canceled free updates.
@Locutus: Now we can laugh at all the people who stole dotTech’s registration information when they try to upgrade to v9.82 and it reverts to a trial.
Well it was good while it lasted Ashraf. I really dont have a need for the advanced features so I uninstalled the one you offered and installed the free version instead. It works just the same as I have been using it, no real difference. Thanks for working so hard to provide us with freebies.
