Windows performance tuning
BRUTAL Optimizer is a Windows 10 and 11 tuning tool with 22 optimization modules — 17 of them free — and 661 named tweaks, each one a real Windows setting with its own undo. It ships no kernel driver and no game hooks, and its Smart Route relay engages only when it measurably beats your direct connection; otherwise it tells you to stay direct.
01 — Three claims, three receipts
Sum of TweakCount across all 22 modules — Views/OptimizeView.xaml.cs:56-77
Exactly 5 modules carry IsProOnly — Views/OptimizeView.xaml.cs:56-77
ConnectionBrain.cs:75 — EngageMarginMs = 8.0
02 — How it actually works
22 modules write genuine Windows state — process priority, gaming task scheduling, the power plan, the TCP stack, timer resolution. Each module restores the exact keys it touched, and a System Restore point is taken before the heavy passes. The free tier is the toolbox, not a trial with a countdown.

Frame-time and 1% lows are read from Windows' own display statistics rather than by hooking DirectX or injecting into the game. When no game is running it shows a dash and says so, instead of inventing a render rate.

Smart Route times your direct path and each relay every match. It engages only on an 8 ms or better win, re-measures every 90 seconds while engaged, and reverts the moment the advantage drops. When you are already optimal, it says "staying direct" — the verdict no gaming VPN will ever show you.

Drive health reads SMART, wear and temperature, then gates maintenance on the hardware itself: TRIM on flash, defrag only on a spinning disk confirmed by the operating system. The guarantee is a hardware check, not a checkbox.

No second engine, no signatures of its own, no "disable Defender" button, and it never registers as an antivirus — which would silently switch Defender off. If a status read fails it reports "status unavailable" rather than a frightening "unprotected".

If Pro expires the app drops back to Free and every optimization already applied stays exactly as it was. Nothing is reverted, nothing is held. There are no ads in any tier — the ad system was deliberately deleted from the codebase to keep that promise.

03 — What it will not do
The optimizer market is a landfill of placebo. BRUTAL publishes what it will not ship — no registry cleaner, no RAM booster, no SSD defrag, no guaranteed FPS number — and then makes those refusals structural.
PC gamers first, because placebo gets caught fastest there. Then everyone else.
