There is only one other photoshop plug-in organizer or switch out there for free (Plug-in Commander Lite), so I have installed this SpeedUP twice and both times hated it and removed it. It renames your psd extensions so they are not recognized (pretty standard method), but you have to choose which plugins *to RUN*, not *to disable*. So you have an extensive (no pun intended) list of plugins to sort through. I use FreeCommander file manager (using an extension filter) and rename the plugin extensions myself. Maybe I just don't understand it right.

I use Photoshop 10 and it takes a long time approximately 30 to load on my pc. But when I install the SpeedUp it takes only 10 seconds. What a dramatic increase. Highly recommend!

This program shows a nag screen when exiting, trying to get you to buy another program by this company.

This program is absolutely perfect for someone like me who really only uses Photoshop for basic photo editing and is constantly opening pictures all day long...I just set it to Optimize and my startup went from about 15 seconds to about 5 seconds! And you can't beat the price!

Being a photoshop user I jumped at this program when I saw it here. Photoshop on my computer takes roughly 20 seconds to load. After this program optimized photoshop it took 3-5 seconds now. Major speed improvement. One thing I didnt like was all the plugins it lists you can disable at startup. While there all there, it doesnt explain what they do so your left just leaving them alone or doing alot of guessing and hope it doesnt crash photoshop when opening. But if you leave them enable your still good just checking the boxes above the plugin list. And still get that major speed boost. Quality program for free use. Small size and does what its suppose to. If only it explain what the plugins did, then it would be perfect!
