dotTech Advice

Call me a luddite but I’m not one for defragging the registry. The reasoning is simple; the risk isn’t worth the reward. I’m not saying registry defragmentation won’t improve performance; depending on how long it has been since you reformated and how often you like to install programs, you may get a performance boost by defragging the registry. The issue is the registry is so small in size (comparatively speaking) that defragging it typically doesn’t result in noticeable speed boosts simply because your computer can read a fragmented 100 MB registry nearly as quickly as an un-fragmented 100 MB registry, for example. For this non-noticeable speed boost you are risking causing huge problems if your registry defragger malfunctions and messes up your registry.

That said, Auslogics Registry Defrag is one of the better registry defrags out there. It automatically creates a system restore prior to dragging, analyzes and shows you what needs to be defragged and tells you estimate increase in performance prior to actually conducting the defrag, and gives users the ability to conduct the defrag now (reboot required) or conduct the defrag on next reboot. So if you want a registry defrag, Auslogics Registry Defrag is a viable option. However, as I already mentioned above, I’m not pro-registry defragmentation at all so it’s hard for me to recommend even the best registry defragger.
