AusLogics BoostSpeed Premium

What is AusLogics BoostSpeed Premium?

AusLogics BoostSpeed Premium is marketed as a PC performance optimizer that utilizes several techniques to attempt to increase the speed of the user's PC include registry tuning (which is a practice that is often criticized by experts as producing no results) as well as hard drive scrubbing. The overall value of such PC performance optimization is questionable yet might offer some benefit depending on the overall usability of the PC.

Overview

Upon installation and setup, it defines an auto-start registry entry which makes this program run on each Windows boot for all user logins. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The main program executable is boostspeed.exe. The software installer includes 44 files and is usually about 52.66 MB (55,217,567 bytes). ATUpdatersHelper.dll is the automatic update component of the software designed to download and apply new updates should new versions be released.
