Our verdict: BoostSpeed bundles many maintenance tools into one window, from junk cleanup and startup control to privacy tweaks. The free edition covers only the basic versions, and the app pushes the Pro upgrade. Registry cleaning brings little real speed and some risk, so use it carefully.
About Auslogics BoostSpeed
Auslogics BoostSpeed is a PC optimisation suite. It removes temporary files and leftovers, lets you disable startup items, cleans invalid registry entries, defragments drives and suggests Windows tweaks for privacy and disk space.
The free edition includes essential cleanup, basic registry and junk cleaning, manual internet optimisation and basic privacy protection. Advanced cleanup, full registry cleaning, scheduled maintenance, automatic internet optimisation and the browser anti-tracker require BoostSpeed Pro.
What it does well
- Junk cleanup. Removes temporary files, caches, old logs and update leftovers.
- Startup manager. Disables apps that load with Windows.
- Registry cleaner. Removes invalid or empty registry keys; full cleanup is Pro only.
- Windows tweaks. Suggests settings for privacy, disk space and behaviour.
- Disk defragmentation. Defragments hard drives; scheduled defrag needs Pro.
Who it is for
Good fit
Users who want many cleanup and tweak tools in one place and do not mind upgrade prompts.
