Advanced System Tweaker – Windows Tweaking Tool

Advanced System Tweaker is a Windows tweaking tool with a couple of unusual extras. It is a central hub for any kind of tweak or anything else that can be done via registry files, commands and vbscript files. The add-ons in the program allow it to grow and handle just about anything. It has a direct link to search and find the growing list of add-ons. It comes with 37+ add-ons already installed.

At first glance the program doesn’t look too impressive. It only comes with 37 Windows tweaks, for instance, covering the usual areas: memory optimisations, interface tweaks, networking improvements, Explorer speedups and so on. And an inflexible interface means they’re not too well presented. Most tweak descriptions are too long to view in their pane, for instance. You can’t resize this or maximise the window, either, so have to scroll horizontally to read them.

It can speed up your PC by telling Windows to keep more items in memory. Sounds good, but if you’re an expert Windows user you’ll still want more information. And you can get it, too, just by clicking the Detailed Information bar, which (amongst other data) shows you exactly which Registry settings the tweak will apply. It’s the same for every tweak here: the program is completely transparent about what it’s doing.

Advanced System Tweaker also supports “Add Ons”, which means you can extend its abilities by downloading more tweaks online or creating new ones of your own. So in just a few minutes you can extend the program with many of your own favourite Windows tweaks, which could make it far more useful.
