Registry cleaners are available online for anyone to download and the variety and range of the software available are actually quite eclectic. I think that is the one problem that people face when looking for a good and free registry cleaner to solve their computer slow down problems – or to just do maintenance on their registry. There are several things you should look out for when choosing a free registry clean online.
Firstly, always be wary of sales copy written on the website; anyone can tout and impress to no end with claims and sweeping statements, but there is such a thing as going too far. In the area of registry cleaners, the product should really be selling itself; personally, I would give more attention to those websites who have a clean approach and a matter of fact list of what the software can do than I would those who use big bold red letters promising you the world.
Also, a registry cleaner is never truly a single focused product because computer slowdowns are an interlinked problem within any computer’s matrix. Since the registry deals with almost everything to do within the Windows environment and online connectivity, a registry cleaner should now represent a holistic solution to people’s problem. Looking at a few cleaners on the market, a few of the good ones, I noticed a trend towards value added support for people with computer slowdown problems.
Just an example, most of the cleaners now provide support for aspects of the internet explorer browser like temporary internet files, cookies, history, recently typed URLs, lost .dat files and even form completion. They are able to track all those files that you do not need and are just taking up space and delete them from the system. They are also able to delve into other aspects of the explorer environment and system settings like recycle bin issues, memory dumps, fragmented files, MRUs and start menu options.
Many of the cleaners available online provide the option to review the start up programs running on computers and remove those that were non essential. Of course, going into the issue of the registry, any good registry cleaner should be able to get rid of most common problems like missing shared DLLs, unused file extensions, Active X and Class issues, application command lines, orphan keys, obsolete software etc.
The list is actually quite long, but it is a critical list of all the possible ways that your computer can be slowed down. For anyone looking for a registry cleaner online, I would say that there are many for you to choose from. Like any purchasing decision, free or not, you need to do research on the software that has caught your eye and ensure it has good reviews. Many independent editorials and online software sites provide such information, including user testimonials. It is a good start for you to make a decision and be rid of all your slowdowns in your PC.
