Registry Workshop user (TorchSoft - Malware Defender) but in the past I've tried PageDefrag from Sysinternals for placement on the hard drive and NTREGOPT to optimize the contents.
I don't understand why some softwares which have huge download counts don't include a registry defrag tool in them? Is it so hard? For instance : CCleaner, piriform even created hdd defragment application but there is not any registry defragment application in their roadmap. Why? *Because they don't believe a registry defragment. *They want to give all in one. *They havent got talented software developers.
I use an old System Suite Reg Defrag on an old XP system but nothing on the Family XP or my Vista machines I don't notice any benefit by using the System Suite one, but I have never had a Registry issue at all. I like many don't mess with it manually.
Auslogics RegDefrag (PAID) . I never had any problems with it, but WINASO nearly crashed my computer when it was replacing the files.
Never tried one, but after reading this, i just tried NTREGOPT Still have to see if theres a difference
Registry Compaction/Compression/Defragmentation was the main reason for my purchase of PC Tools Registry Mechanic. I always use it for this task.
