Default Top Windows Registry Repairer Software Review

Your thinking is faulty. If a program indexes though a file, it doesn't run
any slower if the file is ten bytes or ten million bytes.

Completely false. Having a larger registry does not affect speed.


Having to read so much as one singly byte of data takes time and if that
byte is new, it will require more cpu cycles and thus more time. When you
consider some programs can add tens of thousands of entries to a registry,
it certain can slow things down.

Haven't you EVER noticed how a virgin XP system is fast to boot and run,
but with each additional suite, etc., it boots slower and runs a tad
slower each time? Aren't you the MVP here who also says that boot times
in excess of 5 minutes are OK without having any idea what's loaded on a
system?



possibly more problematic as time progresses.



Also false.


No, actually very much possible.



So how do you take care
of registry problems? You simply use a registry cleaner which will do
all of the hard work for you. It will automatically repair any
problems and help you get rid of unnecessary data.


On the rare occasions where it boils down to an unknown registry problem,
or the registry needs to be eiminated (or not) as the culprit, a good
cleaner is a very valuable tool.




Besides being spam, that's terrible advice. Registry cleaning programs
are *all* snake oil. Cleaning of the registry isn't needed and is
dangerous. Leave the registry alone and don't use any registry
cleaner. Despite what many people think, and what vendors of registry
cleaning software try to convince you of, having unused registry
entries doesn't really hurt you.


At least you have it right that time. It's blatant spam and the only
correct response to it would have been to report it as such. But you
chose to drag out your ignorance and once again display it to the world
for all posterity to see. You have an engine out and cannot sustain
flight on the one that's left.


The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner erroneously
removing an entry you need is far greater than any potential benefit
it may have.

Oh, here you go, another self serving spew to another unknown URL that may
or may not be safe and almost certainly contains misinformation since it
came from you. You have no credibility as it is; that sure won't help you.



You need to understand that having a damaged registry can ultimately
result in corruption of you entire operating system, which can then
sometimes become totally unusable. This is why you need to make use
of a good quality registry cleaner which can perform regular system
checks to make sure that any potential problems are repaired...



Completely false, as above.


No, it's not "completely false", but it is definitely unlikely. It's a
simple "grab" for the ensuing spam and nothing more. Of no more
importance than your saying and spamming your MVP status, which is
untraceable.

I thank you once more for the opportunity to read your entertaining
fish-leavings and to expose you for the ignorant, closed minded idiot that
you are.

Spam duly reported, something you are surely too lazy to bother with.
