I use Puran on both Windows 7 and the virtual machines with XP.

How do you setup Puran, any special settings?  :)

It is pretty straight forward, you might want to leave it on the default settings to start with.

You would have to ask that on the Puran site.

The fact that it may be signed or not doesn't dictate how effective a piece of software is.

I guess it would rather depend on the state of your hard disk prior to optimisation. Whilst I have it checked, I have been using Puran for some considerable time, so I doubt I would see a change even if I unchecked it.

Well... A negative report I need to do: PIOZR increased my boot time. I'd rather trust in Microsoft adjusts of the files needed to boot.
I use Puran, just not the PIOZR.

the puran boot time defrag apparently deletes your restore points also.
