HOW OFTEN SHOULD I SCAN MY REGISTRY?
Scheduling a scan is dependant upon the usage of your system. We suggest scheduling a scan every week to two weeks if you are very active on your system.
We also suggest that you run a scan after removing programs or if your system's performance seems slow.
CAN REGCURE RUN AUTOMATICALLY?
You can schedule RegCure to run automatically at any time that is convenient including times when you are not heavily taxing system resources.
WHAT IS THE WINDOWS REGISTRY?
The Windows registry is one of the central components of the Windows operating system. It is required for Microsoft Windows to be able to operate. The registry was developed to provide a central location for computer hardware and software data that had previously been scattered throughout the Windows system, primarily as INI (.ini) files. The Registry replaces most of the .ini files that were used in Windows 3.x and MS-DOS configuration files, e.g., Autoexec.bat and Config.sys.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF REGISTRY PROBLEMS?
Symptoms of problems in the Windows registry include system crashes, sluggish performance, computer freezes, dll errors, the "blue screen of death", frequent error messages, slow computer start-up, shut down problems, unstable software programs, frequent need to reboot, application error messages and crashes, missing file notices, inability to remove software using add/remove program, and Windows startup problems.
CAN I FIX REGISTRY PROBLEMS MYSELF?
Many registry problems can be repaired (edited) manually by using the regedit utility built into Windows. However, for the vast majority of computer users, this is not really a safe or effective way of resolving registry issues.
Making modifications to the registry can cause significant damage. Most experts recommend that you only modify the registry yourself if you really understand what you are doing. If you plan to edit the registry yourself, ALWAYS back up the registry first so it can be returned to a previous working condition should something go wrong.
For most of us, the better solution is to use a good quality registry repair software program, also known as a registry cleaner. A quality registry repair program will automatically back up the registry and the best ones give you the option to restore the registry incrementally, so you can restore only those parts in the Windows registry that are causing the problems.
Registry cleaner software makes the laborious procedure of cleaning your Windows registry relatively simple. It typically includes applications that not only help you resolve existing registry issues, but can help stop problems from taking place in the first place.
WILL A REGISTRY CLEANER FIX SPYWARE OR VIRUS PROBLEMS?
Registry cleaner software will not typically remove Spyware or repair and remove viruses. However, Spyware, viruses and Adware programs frequently alter or damage your Windows registry and a good registry cleaner will help repair this damage and remove unwanted registry entries.
WHAT'S THE FASTEST WAY TO FIX REGISTRY PROBLEMS?
A good registry cleaner is the fastest and easiest way to fix registry problems. It will optimize your Windows registry by locating invalid paths, invalid file types, obsolete start menu order, invalid shared programs, invalid startup programs, invalid fonts, obsolete software entries, invalid application paths, dead file extensions, Adwares and Spywares that use the registry, invalid help paths, and all other bad entries within the Windows registry.
Using a Windows registry cleaner tool as a part of your regular pc maintenance is not only easy, but will help stop Windows error messages, prevent system crashes, resolve hidden problems, and really optimize your computer's speed and performance.
