In addition to Vista compatibility, WinOptimizer 4 also comes with three new modules, a brand-new hard disk defragmenter, a huge number of new system tweaking options and many other improvements and enhancements. The new version includes three new modules and a completely new Vista-compatible version of the disk defragmenter.
