How to Remove Broken Shortcuts

1. Start the TuneUp Shortcut Cleaner module by going to the Optimize system category in the Start

Center and selecting Remove broken shortcuts from the Manually run maintenance tasks area.

Alternatively, you can start the module by going to Overview of all functions in the Start Center and

selecting the Remove broken shortcuts entry under Windows.

Your interface (Desktop, Start Menu, Quick Launch bar)and the history lists of some programs are

checked for broken shortcuts and entries. This analysis can last several minutes.

After the analysis TuneUp Shortcut Cleaner shows you a list of all broken shortcuts and references.

If no broken entries have been found, you will only receive a list of the places that were searched. In

this case, click Close to exit this function.

2. You decide whether to delete all broken shortcuts or not.

Clear the checkboxes of those invalid references that you do not want to delete. The standard setting

is for all invalid references to be deleted.

3. Click Cleanup.

The cleanup process normally lasts just a few seconds. Afterwards you receive a short status report on

the number of references and shortcuts removed.

4. Click Finish to exit TuneUp Shortcut Cleaner.
