Auslogics BoostSpeed 8 adds boot-time defrag, System Advisor

Auslogics has released Auslogics BoostSpeed 8, the latest edition of its freemium Windows maintenance suite.

The new build brings back System Advisor, which scans your system and suggests tweaks (programs to uninstall, Windows services you can disable, system settings which aren’t optimized -- there are 56 recommendation types in total).

Boot-time defrag support means the program can now optimize locked system files.

Auslogics says there also are "over 100 improvements in every module and component", and it’s now all packaged in a skinnable interface (see Settings > General).

The program comes in a free build with the core maintenance tools (disk defrag, Registry cleaner/ defrag, file recovery, browser manager, more), or upgrading for $59.95 (1 year, 3 PCs) gets you a Startup Manager, internet optimizer, disk doctor, locked files manager, tweak tool, file shredder and more.

Auslogics BoostSpeed 8 is available now for Windows XP -- 10.
