Donn first of all, love your blog and i would like to thank you for spending the huge amount of time on doing these great reviews of defrag programs. Now i have a question for you, sure hope you know the answer. I know that the defrag in Vista can defrag the MFT but i wonder can it defrag the registry hives as well ? You know like PageDefrag can do on XP ? Been trying to find an answer for the last 2 hours but no luck so far. Can you help me with this one ?
Cheers !

I doubt it can do the registry, because the files are open while it runs. UltraDefrag 2 has a decent boot defrag tool, and PuranDefrag and PerfectDisk can do the registry.
See my article on Boot Time Defragmentation
Yeah i use PerfectDisk myself and i know it takes care of that but i wonder does Ultra Defrag also defrag those registry files with it's boot time defrag ???
Never mind i got the answer already, it sure does defrag those registry files(including ntuser.dat). The only complaint i have with this program is that it's very unstable, seems it's not tested too much before a new version is released. Still i'll keep a look out on this one.
Cheers !
