If you run any version of Microsoft Windows then you have a Windows registry. This is a place, actually a database, on your computer that stores settings and options for your hardware, operating system, most software (programs), and user settings. It often gets cluttered with extraneous entries from programs that were deleted but didn’t get entirely removed, or from failed attempts at installation of new software and, for other reasons, it may contain corrupted information. This can slow down the operation of your computer or, in fact, cause it to fail to operate correctly, even locking up from time to time.
Cleaning and/or repairing the information in the registry is a good thing to do every now and then. But this is not a task for the amature to attempt manually. Although the registry can be easily accessed, its content can be confusing to the novice and deleting, or changing, the wrong thing could be disastrous. This program, however, makes the task easy and safe.
The CNET Review says, in part, “Free Window Registry Repair is a refreshingly simple tool for cleaning up your Windows Registry. It lacks the bells and whistles offered by some programs–such as special features for uninstalling programs or managing the Start menu–but thankfully so. This is a program that does something well and doesn’t stray from that success.”
