Reviewed by: CNET Staff
It's hard to tell if registry defraggers and cleaners work, but the Auslogics Registry Defragger looks good. It's hard to gauge if these programs are effective because once you're done using them, you'd need more than a mere store-bought machine with store-loaded programs to judge CPU speed.
When you run it, it tells you that it will perform a registry analysis, after which you will be able to review its registry report, and once that's done with you can run the registry optimization, requiring a reboot to defrag and compact the registry. It's a fairly serious program, and once you begin the analysis it won't let you move the mouse outside the program window. It also "strongly recommends" that users close all other programs while it runs, although this is a standard warning for registry-cleaning apps.
An expected change in clock speed or other performance benchmarks never materialized. Resource-intensive Internet browsers and e-mail clients may be piggish, but they're necessary and don't load any faster or slower than normal after running the reg defrag. Until a registry defragger or cleaner can demonstrate benchmarkable improvements to a computer, they'll be little more than 21st century snake oil.
Publisher's description
From Auslogics Software :Microsoft Windows and various programs access the registry a few hundred times a second.

Auslogics Registry Defrag can significantly speed up your computer by helping you defragment registry, remove gaps, and make it contiguous, smaller and faster to access. Version 4.1.11.105 has program loads faster and fixed shared modules errors.

Version: Auslogics Registry Defrag 4.1.11.105
"It works well and is free; therefore I am not complaining"
Pros: Yes; I see the discussions as to whether registry defrags work and if they speed up the CPU. I can't tell but I know that when i have run the various registry defrags they quite often seem to find wasted space particularly after I have removed several programs ( especially registry entry intensive) and found big holes in the registry. Whether it speeds up the CPU or not I think tha like the defraging the disk it is probably better as long as it does not damage the registry( makes a back up before you start anyway).
Cons: Nothing, not to like
