Windows registry cleaner and repiar tools

A registry cleaner is a type of software application designed specifically for the Microsoft Windows operating system. Its purpose is to remove redundant or unwanted items from the Windows registry.

Registry Cleaners remove items from the Windows Registry which are no longer in use or are unwanted on the system. Such items may include information left by software that has otherwise been removed from the computer, information that is no longer of use, or keys necessary to the operation of malware

Registry cleaners, or registry cleanup software, can in some cases improve the performance of computers by ridding the registry of redundant information.

Due to the sheer size and complexity of the registry database, manually cleaning up debris and invalid entries would be impractical, so registry cleaners are essentially tools that automate the process of looking for invalid entries, missing file references or broken links within the registry and resolving them.

Some registry cleaners offer backup and restore functions that allow the user to revert changes made by the registry cleaner in case they are undesired. A Registry Cleaner may be useful for someone that adds or removes programs from their computer very often, however most organisations would rebuild a problem machine back to a known, good state rather than waste resources trying to repair a machine that is not working. Furthermore, professionals typically use virtual machines for scenarios such as testing or application packaging where programs need to be installed and uninstalled frequently

In my opinion, yes they do. i bought registrybooster and installed on all 3 of my computers. the first time on my husband's laptop it found 617 errors. Now I use registrybooste every other day and my laptops run faster. I will continue to use the registry cleaner but not pay for it as I have now. It is included with McAfee. You can see the list of items it will remove, so you can keep the ones you want and eliminate the others.

They can definitely cause problems! Some are good and some are positively dangerous to your computer. It's a good idea to do the usual things like clearing out the rubbish first. Like temporary internet files for instance, if your PC's running slowly. And defragmenting the drive, if you haven't already done so. Then, as a last resort, try a reputable cleaner. I'm not going to advertise - there are many impartial reviews for you to look through online!

I used to use CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com) which is free.



However, it doesn't have any sort of backup facility which meant that one day, it deleted the wrong registry file and made my computer unable to boot up. I took it to the computer repair store and they wanted $150 to fix it



I now use a cleaner called "RegAce" because it's easy to use and has a complete backup system which even makes a restore point on your computer. You can read about it here: http://www.fastregistryfixes.com/regace_review.html

No. Registry cleaners can be very harmful to your registry. It is not to be played with.
