Michael Says: “Windows programs store all settings and things in one database called the Registry. After using your computer for a few months (or years) installing and removing programs, your registry can fill up with all sorts of old settings and junk. The extra registry items are not needed and can slow down your computer or cause programs to lockup or crash.

    Registry First Aid scans your registry to fix problems and remove unneccessary items.

    On my own computer, it found over 900 registry items to be fixed, from paths that were wrong, to leftover settings from programs I had uninstalled but that hadn't cleaned up after themselves.”
