A Scanned And Repaired Registry Equals A Faster Computer

By Mark Walters

As a computer owner, you will certainly have already wondered how to speed up your computer. I will give you some advice on doing that in the second half of this article, but lets first look at why it is that computers slow down in the first place.

The main reason for the performance of a computer becoming less efficient is problems with its registry, which is basically a database of everything on a computer. It needs to be accessed every time that you run one of the programs on your computer.

Each time a program is installed or run, the registry is either added to or modified. Whilst the registry is designed for this happen to it, errors, in terms of faulty entries and the overwriting of necessary entries, begin to accumulate.

Before long then, the registry has grown in size with many obsolete and empty entries, your computer takes longer to read through all this information, and once working parts of it have been replaced or overwritten.

Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem, and it does not involve you having to buy a new computer, or even any new hardware at all. All that you need to do is find the errors in your registry, and then fix them.

However, since the registry consists of many thousands of entries it is literally impossible to fix this problem by hand. Therefore, what you need is some special software, which is called a registry cleaner.

Registry cleaning software will firstly scan the registry of your computer to locate the problem entries, and it will then fix and repair them. As an added bonus, it will also repair any errors that may have formed in your system files, which can also contribute to the slowing down of your computer.

This type of software does not require you to have any technical knowledge at all. It really is as simple as opening the program and then clicking run, much in the same way as you would run an anti-virus scan of your computer.

Once the registry scan has been started, you can just leave it to run, and when you come back to it you will find a report awaiting you that shows what errors were found and what action was taken to repair them. You will also be given some tips and advice on how to prevent those errors from occurring again.

So, there you have it, if you want a faster, more efficient, computer, just use a good registry cleaner on a regular basis. - 30431
