BootRacer Review by
4.0/5
  IMPORTANT NOTICE

The time you have to wait from the moment you press your computer’s power button until you reach the desktop is called boot. It’s in this time that Windows prepares all it needs for you to perform activities. In case it’s taking too long, specialized applications like BootRacer can help you analyze and do something in this regard.

You don’t invest a lot of effort not time in making the application work. The main requirement is a Windows computer, and it seems to work just fine even in Windows 10. Accommodation is yet another aspect you need not worry about, because the intuitive design makes it a walk in the park.

The visual style is a combination of the common flat style with the round, 3D buttons. There are enough descriptions at your disposal so you don’t end up scratching your head after taking a look through its set of features.

As the name might have you thinking, the core function is to record the time it takes for Windows to completely load the desktop and all startup services. There are also a few options to configure in this regard. These let you test speed every time Windows starts, whether or not to display time in the analysis process, as well as how log files are created and stored.

Prepare to save your work and anything else you’re doing, because you need to restart the computer, even to simply test out the application. Once the desktop is brought up, the total amount of time is shown, as well as how much you have to wait.

By the time everything is ready for your intervention, the application’s main window is brought back up and shows results in a neat manner. Pre-boot and password timeout sections are not taken into consideration, which means the application only counts those seconds used by Windows.

You’re also offered to speed up boot time, but you need to download other third-party applications in order to speed up. Moreover, you can submit your results online along with your PC’s specs and have them compare to others. History is also tracked, and can display the time of each Windows boot.

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that you don’t really have to notice performance spikes on your computer to benefit from what BootRacer has to offer. It’s a neat way to keep an eye on your PC’s behavior, letting you know what can cause it to slow down. Although you can’t speed up boot time directly, alternatives are provided, making this app worth a try overall.
