Registry Cleaner - What Everybody Ought to Know About?
What is the Registry - Windows Registry is a huge bank of information about everything that's on your computer.
What ever you do, let's say you change your Windows Wallpaper and it's stored in the Registry. You install a new font on your PC - it's stored in the registry. In fact, every thing you do on your computer, the registry getting involved.
We can say that the Registry is a bit like the nerve center of your PC. Any time it needs to know something, it goes and asks the registry. Window asks it for information dozens of times in a single second. So the registry gets lots of use.
How registry goes bad- Registry gets massed up when you remove a program, delete a folder or do any usual task that we do every day. Registry doesn't take care of itself; it doesn't optimize and clean itself. Unorganized registry sometimes causes your computer to crash, slowdown; you get error messages and lots of irritating problems.
Paid version compared to Free one ' I will shortly review 2 known paid and free tools and discuss there features, and efficiency.These are the main sections in registry tools:
Cleaner ' clean your computer from unused and temporary files. You get a cleaner system and your personal stuff are protected by removing files you have opened and traces of the websites you have visited. - Available in both paid and free version.
System Tools - Enable you to delete unwanted programs from start menu. Remove all this programs that you don't need when you turn on your computer. - Available in both free and paid version.
Backups and restore point ' provides backup restoring capability automatically or manually. To ensure the safety of your system during the registry repairing, you need the ability to restore your registry status. ' Available only in the paid version..

Scan scheduler ' schedule scanning on a certain hour or day, very comfortable for those of us that usually prefer not to deal with computer maintenance. - Available only in the paid version.
Scanning and repair Registry efficiency- Main registry tools feature is to scan & repair registry. To check the efficiency of the free version compared to the paid version, I perform a simple test, i scan registry with both tools at the same point and these are the result I got:
112 problems found in the free version.124 problems found in the paid version.
Then I used the free version to clean the problems that where found.Then I used the paid version to scan again, and I got 142 problems (more then it found before repairing), that was the first red light for me.I scan again with the free version ,to make sure all problems were repiared ,and of course no problem where found!
There is no short way to find out which tool will satisfy your needs. The easiest way is to run it on your computer and compare the results you get.According to results I got, the paid version is more efficient then the free version. It's up to you to choose. Just don't forget to remove the one you decided not to use.
