I read an article on a website recently which stated registry cleaners were of no use and people shouldn’t waste their time or money on them. This author said he could not change his mind about this without seeing some convincing data.
In this article, I would like to make it clear registry cleaners are an important tool that should be used periodically as a regular part of computer upkeep. I will also make the case corruption in the registry will greatly diminish a computer’s speed and overall performance.
This article doesn’t contain any stat sheets or lab reports of any kind. Being a computer technician, I am concerned with the well-being of computers and it is from this point of view I will make my case.
Customer Satisfaction
An engineer can sit in a lab and pour over theoretical computer behavior if he or she would like. However, there is one statistic an engineer will never discover. That is the thousands, yes thousands of satisfied customers who have thanked me for either properly cleaning their computers’ registries or in many cases, explaining to them the proper way to use a good commercial registry cleaner.
There is absolutely no doubt about it! Making sure your computer’s registry is free of corruption is a necessary part of its general maintenance, and unless you’re a certified Microsoft technician, only a registry cleaner is able to handle that function. Maybe a few years ago a computer operator could get away without scanning and repairing a registry, but not today.
Windows XP and Vista develop registry corruption routinely. This corruption is not the result of misuse. It occurs from normal use and if it is not taken care of it will slow down your computer, sometimes to a crawl! There are many other maladies a corrupt registry will cause. Amongst these maladies are computer errors and crashes.
No Hypotheses, But a Way of Life
I work on computers for a living. Would I recommend registry cleaners for no reason? Would I tell a good customer of mine to use one and then have him or her come back to me to tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about. Sure, if I was stupid! The truth is, I want to keep my good customers happy and I certainly, I do my best not to lead them astray.
I have no idea why there are some who are preaching against registry cleaners when I have seen them save computers from their demise time and time again!
For anyone who is still skeptical, here’s the deal. A good registry cleaner offers a free scan so you can see if you have a corrupt registry before you commit to buying one. If you have no corruption, the case is closed, you don’t need a cleaner. If you do have corruption, you can buy a cleaner with a complete money back guarantee. So, if your computer’s not running right and you have no spyware or viruses but you do have registry corruption, I believe the only way you’re going to get your computer going full speed ahead again, is to use a good registry cleaner.
