Bye Bye Fix-It Utilities? Microsoft seem to be making a move into the Utilities Software sector - Security Essentials is VERY good and free.

Mind you, as most of the problems that Fix It Center and Security Essentials aim to sort out are due to bad MS programming to start with, I guess they owe us all some freebie fixes!

yes, indeed, with "Microsoft Security Essentials" and now "Fix it Center, competition is tough!

I'd be very cautious installing a "Fix-it" software developed by the same developer who created all the bugs in the original software. Sounds like a mission impossible to me.

I agree with Marc-Antoine, it's like getting a vaccine by the guy who created the virus (hmmm sounds like what happen with H1N1 flu...)

I can imagine that the security essentials tool is usefull as they are the most well placed to know where they have security flaws, but concerning Fix-it it mean that we may have to pay to get an OS bug fixed....

I agree with Tim Browning about security essentials, I think also that daily use of windows and wininternals utility make a system work fine.

I haven't used this software yet but I have used the Fix It Solution Center and haven't had any problems with it. I May try this nnew tool in the future.
