Are you sick to death of a computer that seems to have forgotten how to run as it did when you first purchased it? The chances are, you’ll have done a little research to see what can be done to rectify the problem. And at some point, you’ll have probably heard mention of the Windows registry cleaner, a unique utility tool that sits on your operating system and flushes out all the bad registry entries so that you can receive a performance injection boost.

There are quite a few options in the Windows registry cleaner stakes. You’ll find some that are highly praised and effective in their repairing of the registry, while others seem to do very little to fix the genuine problems that are plaguing your experience on the PC. Getting the best Windows registry cleaner doesn’t have to be a case of trial and error. There are some key characteristics to look out for when selecting your tool.

Firstly, you’ll want to look out for what options are available freely and what options require a paid upgrade. A Windows registry cleaner may come free as far as scanning the operating system goes, but it could potentially cost more to fix the errors after finding them. Not every Windows registry cleaner will let you fix all of the related problems in one sweep. Some choose to allow you to fix a percentage of the errors, leaving you to upgrade to fix the rest.

It’s a good idea to get a selection of tools together, and download each Windows registry cleaner individually. Run the tool to see how many errors it finds and how many errors it’s capable of fixing. You can now make your decision based on which tool found the most errors that were fixable. This method, while good on the surface, might not be 100% reliable seeing as some registry cleaners will encounter problems as they try to fix the various registry corruptions, and these may not be foreseen in the original diagnosis.

Alternatively, you may wish to choose your Windows registry cleaner based on the extra features that each package offers. We’ve seen some tools offering additional bonuses such as the ability to control what programs and applications are launched when you boot up your system. This is a great time saver, and will shave minutes off the time that it takes for you to get an operating system up and running doing jobs that are relevant to you.

Every great Windows registry cleaner should come fully complete with a backup and restore option. When you make changes to the Windows registry, you definitely want to have a backup in place to roll back to in the event that your changes don’t go to plan. Any Windows registry cleaner that fails to offer this simple insurance policy should be skipped over, as it’s likely to cause you more trouble than its worth.

Download a couple of free registry cleaners today and see for yourself which versions you find usable and easy to get to grips with. There’s no set favourite in the market, but you will find some very good tools out there that can add a real boost to your system’s overall performance.
