Choosing the Best Free Registry Cleaner For You

Computer on the fritz? It might be time for a good cleaning of your Windows registry! If your computer has been acting up lately and doing things such as giving you error messages, crashing or just plain running poorly then cleaning your Windows registry can be all it takes to solve your problem. In this article, you will learn how to chose the best free registry cleaner for you so that you can solve those problems quickly and easily.


What to look for in a registry cleaner depends on you and your situation. Most registry cleaners offer similar features. Some registry cleaners have extra settings and functions that can be helpful in doing an overall optimization to your PC. I particularly like how RegCure and a couple of others that provide a startup editor to control what launches automatically with Windows. That alone saves me time every reboot because it prevents Windows from opening up unnecessary programs that just eat system resources and memory.


If you are more technically savvy, you should look at things like the level of configuration. You will probably be less interested in a wizard style user interface yet more interested in how many settings are available. There are registry cleaners available that cater to your needs and offer the ability to preform and tweak many functions.


On the other hand, if you are less computer inclined you will be more interested in a registry cleaner which presents an easy wizard interface. These are by far the most common and popular type of registry cleaner and for good reason. A quality free registry scanner or cleaner will walk you through the process step by step and the results are great. These types are ideal for most users.


In the end the only way to know if a free registry cleaner is the best choice for you is to try it. I recommend that you download the free trial offered by most reputable software vendors and give your computer a scan. If you like the interface and all goes smoothly, you know you have found a winner. If it's not the right fit, you can simply uninstall and try another.
