Two things happened when I used this.

One, it borked my power settings. I could no longer access them in the main settings window, but can still edit them in the control panel.

Two, my system started crashing a couple times a day. I reinstalled my system without using Optimizer and the crashing stopped.

Great app, in theory, but it has some issues.
