The windows registry is an important component of your pc which keeps
all the important configuration information about your computers
hardware and software settings.So if your' e computer is showing signs
of slower performances and faulty applications then the probability is
high that it is a registry problem.The problem is caused when you
continuously install and uninstall software programs from your
computer over time.
You see, this causes your registry to become "bloated" and becomes
erroneus due to the constant additions and removals of these
entries.Most of these programs only partially uninstall which leaves
your hard drive litteres with residuals causing problems in the
overall performance of your pc.The most common registry problems that
a pc user can identify and experience are application files which fail
to execute, some start up menu items which do not dissapear upon
uninstallations and general program files which are either lost or
corrupt.The list of associated registry problems go on and on but it's
best not mention things that the average pc user won't understand.At
this point you only need to worry about how to get your pc back into
top shape and remove those problems....
