If you want to learn more about these Windows utilities, you can check out references on the developer's website. Once the task is over, you're informed by a popup message to restart the computer in order to apply the modifications. The application works fast and requires minimal intervention on your behalf. On the downside, it can be dangerous in the hands of inexperienced users, as warned by the developer.

We think that two important negative aspects about the program are that it doesn't inform users about the changes about to be made to their machines, as well as the fact that it cannot reactivate the affected Windows features to undo modifications just as easily as activating them. Nevertheless, we're taking into account that Hardentools hasn't reached a stable version yet, so there's plenty of room for improvements. It certainly looks like a promising system tweaker for users looking for quick and easy security solutions.
