Smart ActiveCare® – System Mechanic’s patented technology
How many times did it happen to see your PC going busy while you’re trying to perform something simple? Not with Smart ActiveCare.
ActiveCare® maintains your PC at most convenient times, when the computer is not used, while staying away from your system when you are using it.
Automated PC Maintenance, Smarter Than Ever
With the introduction of AI based Smart ActiveCare, automated PC maintenance is no longer just background cleanup. It’s adaptive, intelligent, and tuned to how you actually use your system.
System Mechanic’s patented ActiveCare® technology becomes active when a user is away from a PC. At that time, it silently checks and repairs a computer by diagnosing, tuning, fixing, and cleaning as needed.
As soon as a user is back to use a PC, System Mechanic stops the ActiveCare activity. This results in a faster and healthier PC, while no maintenance activities are interfering in a use of the computer.
What is Smart ActiveCare?
Smart ActiveCare is the next generation of ActiveCare. It uses AI-driven intelligence to make better decisions about when and how maintenance runs.
Instead of relying only on preset rules, Smart ActiveCare:
- Learns your usage patterns
- Understands true idle time
- Adjusts maintenance activity based on real behavior
- Proactively addresses performance issues before they grow
In short, it doesn’t just run maintenance. It runs it at the right time.
How Smart ActiveCare Works
Smart ActiveCare continuously monitors your system in the background. Over time, it builds an understanding of how your PC is used day to day.
That intelligence allows it to:
- Identify genuine idle periods without interrupting work or play
- Decide which maintenance tasks are most needed
- Run optimizations automatically with minimal system impact
- Maintain long-term performance without manual input
You don’t need to schedule scans or guess when to run tools. Smart ActiveCare handles those decisions for you.
Key Benefits of Smart ActiveCare
Less Effort
Once enabled, Smart ActiveCare requires little to no interaction. Maintenance happens automatically.
Smarter Timing
Tasks run when your PC can spare the resources, not when you’re busy.
Proactive Performance
Issues are addressed early, helping prevent slowdowns before they become noticeable.
Continuous Optimization
Your system stays consistently tuned instead of cycling between fast and slow.
ActiveCare vs. Smart ActiveCare
ActiveCare
- Rule-based automation
- Runs maintenance during detected idle time
- Proven background optimization
Smart ActiveCare
- AI-guided decision making
- Learns your habits and adapts over time
- More precise timing and task selection
- Less chance of interruption, better long-term results
Smart ActiveCare doesn’t replace ActiveCare’s foundation. It enhances it.
What Smart ActiveCare Maintains Automatically
Smart ActiveCare can handle a wide range of system tasks, including:
- Junk file and clutter cleanup
- Registry repair and optimization
- Startup process improvement
- System stability fixes
- Performance consistency over time
All of this happens quietly, without constant prompts or reminders.
Using Smart ActiveCare
Smart ActiveCare is built directly into System Mechanic and can be enabled from the settings panel. Users can:
- Turn Smart ActiveCare on or off
- Adjust what types of maintenance are allowed
- Review activity and results at any time
For users who prefer a hands-off experience, the default configuration is designed to work well out of the box.
Real-World Impact
For most users, the biggest difference shows up over time. PCs stay responsive longer. Random slowdowns are reduced. Maintenance stops feeling like a chore.
Instead of reacting to problems, Smart ActiveCare helps prevent them.
Maintenance That Adapts to How You Use Your PC
ActiveCare introduced the idea that PC maintenance should be automatic. Smart ActiveCare takes that idea further by making automation intelligent.
If you want your computer to stay fast, stable, and reliable without constantly thinking about maintenance, Smart ActiveCare is designed to do exactly that — quietly, efficiently, and on your schedule, not a fixed one.
ActiveCare repairs dozens of hard drive, registry and security errors, stabilizing and decluttering your PC for the very best overall system health.
ActiveCare is a part of System Mechanic and System Mechanic Pro software packages, and System Mechanic Pro is a part of System Mechanic Ultimate Defense all-in-one suite.
