Eusing Free Registry Cleaner (Discovery)
If you ask me, the Windows Registry was one of the worst ideas Microsoft ever had. Collect all the settings for the Windows operating system and 99% of the the programs you have on your computer in one huge database file. If anything goes major wrong with the registry, chances are good you will need to reinstall Windows and all your software. The registry also collects all sorts of useless material left over from programs you’ve uninstalled or moved or looked at wrong. (Okay, the “looked at wrong” is probably a slight overstatement.)
There are many programs that will attempt to remove invalid and obsolete information from the Windows Registry. Most cost $20 to $50 — far too much for what they do. Eusing Free Registry Cleaner is, as the name implies, free. It will scan your Windows registry for invalid or obsolete information and provide a list of the problems found and then fix them if you ask it to do so. For maximum safety, the program makes a backup of the entries before attempting to fix them. If any changes cause problems, you can restore any changes made by choosing Restore registry backup.
