2. Once you have downloaded the zip file, extract its contents, and move the program folder to your desired location. Pin its executable file to your Start Menu for easy access. Do not separate the contents of the download as it is important that the contents stay in the same folder.
3. Create a system restore point first. You can use the Create Restore Point button which UWT offers. We insist you create one, before using the tweaker, so that you can revert should you feel the need to.
4. Tweakers are meant for users who know what they are doing. We recommend that you do not over-tweak your system at one go. It is our experience that many people just apply all the tweaks at one go, but don’t remember which tweak was responsible for some change they wish to reverse. We suggest you apply tweaks for only 1 category every day, see how your system performs, before moving on to apply more tweaks.
5. To run the Tweaker, right-click on its exe file and select Run as Administrator.
6. To apply the tweak, check or uncheck the box as the case may be. Once you have selected one or more tweaks, click on the Apply button. Some tweaks may apply instantaneously.
