Your windows operated PC will become slow and balky after a few months of use. If you don't use the machine a lot this may take longer but it is unfortunately inevitable. The cause is nearly always a corrupted registry.

The registry is a big database of information which your operating system uses to run the computer. It is the busiest part of your machine. Every action you take with the computer requires the operating system to access the registry.

As time passes the registry accumulates a lot of unwanted fragments of programs. This maze of fragmentary data chokes the registry and makes it difficult for the operating system to quickly access the entries it needs. This results in slow booting,slow internet surfing and sometimes freezing or crashing of the machine.

If you take no action to correct this problem it will become worse as time goes by. More and more useless data will bloat the registry till it reaches the point where the computer is so slow that it is almost inoperable.

What can the computer user do to correct this? The simple answer is to delete all the unwanted data from the registry leaving only the entries which should be there.

There is an application called regedit installed in all Windows PCs. The purpose of this program is to allow you to edit your registry. You can access regedit by clicking Start,Run and typing regedit in the box.

Regedit will display the registry files and allow you to edit out any entries. A serious warning is in order here however. The registry contains many files which are necessary for operation of your computer. If you accidentally delete any of these you may put the machine completely out of action. You might even have to reinstall the operating system to get the computer going again. You would of course lose all the data you have stored in your computer. This is a disaster that we certainly do not want.

We recommend that unless you know very well what you are doing you should not attempt to edit your registry yourself. The safe and easy way to do it is to download, from the internet, a registry repair application. There are a number of these programs available for download from various companies.

This registry cleaning tool will first offer you a free scan to determine what problems, if any, you have with your registry. There is no charge for this scan and it will show you in detail the problems that have been located. You can then decide whether you want the application to repair your registry for you. The repair process takes only a few minutes and will restore your computer to good running order.

We purchased and tested a number of the popular registry cleaner tools to compare their performance. We found that there was a marked difference in the number of errors found by the various registry cleaner applications. The best in fact found almost fifty percent more errors than the poorest. This of course is the application which we chose to install on our own computers.

It is very important to obtain the best registry checker available obviously. You will install it in your computer and use it regularly to maintain your registry. Your registry will be kept in good condition and slow running problems will be no more.
