The PC is lame with time - programs and data it loads only in the crawl. The producers promise help of optimization software: programs to make PCs tired fast and stable again. COMPUTER BILD has optimization tools for the Windows XP operating systems tested and 7.
Fresh, with a click?
Whether XP or Windows 7 - all tested programs have a comfortable one-click optimization, system settings, and analyzes the proposed improvements. Those who like this promises a faster boot time, experiences a disappointment. No program undercut the start time of a new installation. In many cases, the computer started even slower than before the "improvement"! Also, the loading of web pages shorter no optimizer. But thanks to some dramatic speed improvements in other areas, some tuning programs worth anyway.
Speed optimization for Windows XP
The best optimization program is for XP Data Becker Twin XP. Compared to a used system, the software processes all tested accelerated significantly. The improvements to the already high and fast shutdown in Windows XP were at least five seconds. When copying files and work with video files ran Twin XP to his full strength. In the test, it shortened the video processing of more than six minutes to about one minute. Even copying files was faster than on a freshly installed system. Only the copying of small files was done by the second-best program SAD TuneUp Utilities faster.
Do not install multiple optimizer same time!
The combination of several optimization tools makes the computer in most cases not only slower but also more unstable. Select only the best programs - Twin XP for Windows XP, TuneUp Utilities 2010 for Windows 7 - and try not to bundle different software optimization benefits. The same applies to security programs.
Is there a difference to optimize XP and 7?
Many functions - so deleting unnecessary files - put both operating systems at the same results. But: The XP's own Disk Defragmenter is not worth much. Therefore, an optimizer with Defragmentierfunktion makes sense. For Windows 7, it is the opposite: The on-board defragmentation works fine, an additional program is therefore not meaningful.
Can you optimize something goes wrong?
The optimizer make deep inroads into the system of your PC. As soon as you clean up your registry database can something go wrong, so that Windows will not start then. Thus you should before each optimization run a system backup. Many optimizers have such a function on board.
Windows runs more stable then?
In general, running Windows more stable, for example, after the disk defragmentation. However: speed gains can be measured precisely, the stability of Windows to optimize forever.
