Cn anyone recommend a free registry cleaner? Evidently I have some issues with my registry and I need to clean it up so I can get my system running at peak performance.

I appreciate any help. Thanks

WinASO Registry Optimizer is free to try. I believe it can be used indefinitely though. It can only fix 10 problems per scan in unregistered form but I can live with that

and it automatically backs up your registry each time it fixes problems.

WinASO Registry Optimizer

I also use TweakNow RegCleaner, doesn't fix quite as many problems but I think, no I believe it catches some that WinASO does not.

I tried alot of them out there. All work pretty good except for price of course. I'm using System Mechanic 5 . I downloaded it from download.com man this thing does everyhing. You only get trial of course but man this thing kicks butt.

Registry Mechanic 4.0 from PCTools is about the highest rated Registry cleaner on the market. Free download, fixes problems in the first 6 categories in the free trial version.

PCTools has been around since the DOS days, and they generally know their stuff.

Heh, I still have whatever version it was that went with DOS 5.0 on 5 1/4" floppies. Somewhere. They made good stuff back then.
