Wiki Page written by PCBruiser, CastleCops SRT Team Leader

In this brief "How-To" guide, I am going to show you how to simply, safely and automatically backup and keep your registry optimized and defragmented. I will not discuss issues around tweaking your registry - that is not my purpose in this brief guide, and is a much broader question.

Frankly, I don't tweak my registry much, for the most part, Windows XP does a reasonably good job of optimization for most systems, and many tweaks do more harm than good. Furthermore, I strongly recommend against using automatic registry tweakers - in many cases they will do little good, make either unnecessary or incorrect registry changes, and can, many times, hose your system completely. Unless you are very experienced, and use the tools discussed in this guide, don't do automatic registry tweaking - you are just asking for trouble.
