What to look for in good registry cleaner software

All the software we tested  identified and removed or repaired basically the same problems. In addition to doing what it's supposed to do, you want software with good technical support, you want to make sure the program supports your operating system (Win 98, ME, NT, XP or whatever you have), and you may want to be able to have the program run automatically at start-up or other scheduled times (some will, some won't).

Why you should clean your registry

Your registry is like a large blackboard on which are written the address of every file,  program, folder and drive in your computer. Whenever you add, change or delete something, the registry is modified accordingly, but often things remain on the registry that are no longer used, such as shortcuts to deleted files, sub files for which the main file has been deleted, help files for deleted programs, disabled drivers, spyware applications, etc. Over time, the registry becomes disorganized and overloaded with redundant material, slowing down your PC's performance.
