Rapidboot HA is a tool which can help user decrease Windows startup time. The software will creates a compressed cache of files needed at boot. The cache is read into system memory very early during boot and the PC continues to boot out of that cache instead of off the slower rotational drive. This essentially conveys an SSD-like boot experience on HDD systems. It’s an innovative idea that is made possible by shifting the burden from the I/O subsystem to the CPU and memory subsystem.

The most used version is 1.00.0802, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Upon installation and setup, it defines an auto-start registry entry which makes this program run on each Windows boot for all user logins. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The main program executable is FBConsole.exe. The software installer includes 5 files and is usually about 3.49 MB (3,664,071 bytes). FBLiveUpdate.dll is the automatic update component of the software designed to download and apply new updates should new versions be released.
