Clean Windows Registry

A Must or Nice-to-Have Option?

If you experience these annoying PC problems such as error message, slow boot times, freezes, crashes and sluggish performance, chances are that your PC has tons of registry errors. According to the statistics, 94% of the computers have registry errors and most of us just don’t know about them.

The fact is that most people don’t even have the slightest idea of what a registry is and what is used for. For a basic understanding of what registry is, please read the article “What Is Windows Registry?”. If your PC is older, the odds of having more registry errors may increase exponentially.

Common Symptoms of Registry Errors

Error messages such as EXE and DLL errors
Slower system speed, especially at startup or shut down time
Frequent freezes, crashes or the so-called “blue screen death”

Common Causes of Registry Errors

When you install, uninstall or delete a file from your operating system, references to the uninstalled or deleted file remain in the registry. Over time, these references will be accumulated that will clog the operating system for optimal performance.
Another source of cause for registry error is due to malicious software such as spyware, trojans and adware. The malware adds invalid values to the registry resulting in very unstable operating systems.

As time goes on, these redundant, obsolete or corrupted file entries can do major damages to your computer. It may not be that obvious at first that you have to wait for a couple of minutes longer for the computer to start up or shut down. Eventually, if it’s left uncared for, these file entries will become the leading causes for your PC to malfunction and it will negatively impact your business if you happen to be a self-employed business owner.

What Can You Do?

That’s a great question. One option is that you may be able to clean the registry manually. For majority of average, even advanced computer users, this is really not a wise choice, as computer registry, as the so called “Command Center” for your PC, is quite complicated. You never know the inter-connectedness between the Hives, Keys and Values and what’s going on in the giant database.

The most recommended option is to try a utility software that will routinely clean your registry and remove undesirable/obsolete files and entries so that you can continue to enjoy a high-performing computer.

I know from personal experience that it can be daunting to select one out of many registry cleaning software packages on the market. But the good news is that there are quite a few quality products that will get the job done and they are not outrageously expensive. The median price runs between $25 to $35.

The utility registry cleaning software is very user-friendly whether you are an advanced PC user or a novice. It typically involves a few simple steps such as:

Download the utility software
Scan your PC and identify the registry errors
Remove unwanted and obsolete files and entries
Scan for malware and virus in your computer (added bonus)

As you can tell, the pros of having a registry cleaning software outweigh the cost by a long shot. This will ensure you always have a smooth-functioning PC for your business or personal endeavors and you still have lots of hair left on your head.
