Finding the Invisibles
Revealing Trustful Registry Cleaners among Thousands of Internet Scams

Registry cleaner is still needed as the most ideal solution

Have you recently experienced application failure, system crashes, applications errors, or even the fatal Windows blue screen? If so, then you probably have problems inside your Windows, most specifically your Windows’ registry. Most of the problems inside the registry happen because there are so many activities taking place on your Windows, from installing and updating programs to customizing Windows. Everything is recorded inside the registry and it never stops growing in size. Unfortunately, Windows itself is not good enough at cleaning and managing its own registry.

Finding a perfect solution to fix your Windows problems is probably not as easy as it sounds. First, you can try to find a local Windows maintenance service. But this of course does not come cheap and not flexible also at the time when you are in the middle of nowhere. Then, there is a do-it-yourself option. But honestly, even many PC enthusiasts avoid this path due to alarmingly large number of Windows problems they can find every day. It is just impossible to surrender most of your time to maintain and repair your Windows. There are so many things you can do, live your life for instance. This leaves us with only one option and it is by trusting it all to the registry cleaner and Windows utilities software.

Registry cleaners and Windows utilities software are actually not a new breed of software. Both of them exist to repair Windows problems. The difference between the two is that the first exists mainly to find errors and clean your registry while for the second one registry is only one of many areas of Windows about which it concerns due to abundance of functions it has. Both of them have been around since PC and its problems exist. Their tasks are to help you in both repairing and optimizing your Windows system and its registry. But of course, Windows utilities software has been more successful than the other at achieving that. Despite of that, registry cleaner is still popular among PC owners seeking after extra speed that has lost from their PC or those who seek solution for Windows problems. The searching for the right package itself will also be just the start of another problem. There are so many poor registry cleaners out there with aggressive marketing strategy and intimidating way of selling. With this ruthless kind of approaching, you will easily end up choosing the wrong software.

  There are so Many Internet Scams and Poor Registry Cleaners

After you decide that you need a registry cleaner, hold on a second to deeply consider what product to choose. Not only that every product has different quality of scanning algorithm, tons of those available in the market are internet scams. They will do anything to sell their products including misleading you. This scamming activity is even admitted by the publishers themselves. Furthermore, some security companies have warned these misleading software. Symantec, the publisher of Norton Antivirus, for instance has long recognized these registry cleaner scam in its online threat list database. One example is FixTool aka Perfect Optimizer. This two but actually a single software is categorized as “a misleading application that may give exaggerated reports of errors on the computer.” This registry cleaner is not alone in that database.

Don’t stop there, point your browser to legitimate consumer forums where consumers discuss bad products. ComplaintsBoard and RipoffReport should be your starting point. Check registry cleaner of your choice there. If lots of consumers echo similar complains over and over again, then you should be extremely careful to go further with the software. Some that are red marked in that forum are RegCure, Registry Fix, and ErrorFix. But don’t memorize the names. Most of them are fly-by-night products which you possibly would not meet again next month or year. It is interesting though, that they will probably still use the same engine. For example FixTool, it has different name, different website, but the same software as Perfect Optimizer. Same case happens with ErrorFix and RegTool. 

All these software are not alone. Search around and googling yourself. If you find any registry cleaner with names you never even heard of, offer free download, got so many buzz by internet marketers but quiet on the big name medias like PC Magazine or PC World, and got high red marks in complaint board for its customer dissatisfaction, you will get an idea of how big the brotherhood of scamming in the internet really is.

Find a needle in the haystack: Find a great registry cleaner among internet scams

Basically, internet is just a kind of market where many sellers and merchants gather and offer you the products they sell. There are good and honest sellers but there are many more who are bad and wicked. The common assumption when deciding which registry cleaner to buy is that you can't tell good from bad until you make a purchase. Actually, this is not true. We will show you 5 simple tips to avoid being scammed and find a trustful and legitimate registry cleaner.

1. Look for real company with long and proven track record

Check if the publisher has a valid contact number and physical address of their offices. This is important to make sure they are not fly-by-night companies that can change their identity over night. It is also a plus if the publisher has a branch office in the country you're living. Check also if this company has long and proven track record or not. Go to their website and read the company’s profile and see what prestigious awards they have got for their product. If it is a new publisher, it needs to gain our trusts as consumers more than the long-time established publishers. You should extra check and recheck the new status of these new publishers.

2. Avoid error inflation report

Registry cleaner is much related to registry problems solving and errors finding. But you are wrong to think that its capability is highly associated with high number of errors finding. Yes, you need a registry cleaner that can find errors and problems that are missed by other registry cleaners. But you also don't want your registry cleaner to remove and mess up with entries in your registry that has no problems. Misleading registry cleaner usually has so many false positives just to impress you first. Instead of getting your problems fixed, you will need another fix for the mess it makes. Most of these software are over-reporting, a single problem may have been divided into dozens of subparts prior to reporting. You should question the accuracy of reported issues numbering in the hundreds or thousands.

3. Watch out for empty promise and intimidation

 

With its over-reporting of errors (usually hundreds or thousands), registry cleaner scam will scare you that unless these errors are fixed, your computer might suffer from critical problems and slow performance. This is to lure you into making a fast purchasing. But this is only just the beginning. After you buy, install, and really do the repairing operation with that product, your computer would fall down into a deep trouble. With its shoddy technical design and poor scanning algorithm, it will easily identify false positives. This registry cleaner will modify or even delete registry entries that actually have no trouble in them. Furthermore, your important files could also be in jeopardy.  Legitimate software does not use such exaggerated claims and will provide straightforward, useful information about the status of your Windows, not frightening alarms.

4. Aware of complaints from previous customers

Simply check for complaints in the legitimate consumer complain forum like RipoffReport.com and ComplaintsBoard.com that we have shown early in this article. You can always make sure of yourself that the product you are going to buy is totally crap if in online consumer forums there are dozens of consumers complaining on how one product cannot deliver what it promised and ruining their system instead.

5. Find products that could demonstrate its full capabilities

Finally, there is one thing you can add to your research list that will finalize and close the deal of your decision. This last thing you should do is testing the software for yourself. Try the registry cleaner that offer fully functional features in their trial version. Don’t bother to try a product that only grant you free scanning ability but not repairing ability. This is vital because it is when repairing and optimization operation does a registry cleaner really show what it is capable of. Forget about how many errors every publisher promise to find by using their registry cleaner, forget about how fast your PC will be after you buy and use their software, and forget about how safe their software's optimization process really is. There is no need to go further if you cannot prove it to yourself before you buy. It is either just a rigid marketing strategy or simply scamming.

Some light in the dark: Legitimate registry cleaners do exist

Now with the preceding 5 simple tips, you should be able to pinpoint several candidates of legitimate, trustful, and reputable registry cleaners. The next thing to do is to analyze further which best suited your needs. If you need a registry cleaner to solve your Windows problems, you should remember that a registry cleaner cannot give you full guarantee that all of your Windows problems can be solved. But with reliable scanning algorithm, the success rate can increase significantly. But that still means that you should demonstrate whether or not the product can really cure your troubled Windows.

If you need a registry cleaner to optimize your system, you should remember that what makes your computer run slower than its peak performance is more than just registry problems. It might be caused by heavily fragmented chunks of sectors in your hard drive that are accumulated overtime. There are also junk files that you should concern for due to the alarming burden they give to your system in sorting out and indexing. Abundant startup entries are also becoming the culprit on the lag of Windows process at startup. Another possibility is that there are settings in your Windows that are not optimized and suit you very well. The most common related examples are Windows shutdown wait time and automatic network folder and printer activity. These two operations take noticeable amount of time respectively at shutdown and boot time. All of these examples show perfectly that in order to make your system run faster you need more than just a clean and optimized registry. Thus you should look for a registry cleaner that offers more optimization features.

In short, to find the best registry cleaner for all your needs you should concentrate to the package which offer more optimization features than registry repairer module. You should also be able to try its full capabilities before you buy. Next, we will summarize top product line that not only offer best combination of repairing ability and complete optimization features, but also fully functional trial version that you can test out completely before you buy.

Names that You Can Trust: The best Registry Cleaners and More

Outside so many misleading products out there, TuneUp Utilities, WinOptimizer, Advanced System Optimizer (ASO), and System Mechanics are very few products that offer reliable and trustful registry cleaning solution. The publishers of all of these software have been in the industry for more than 10 years. All of the software also has wide range utilities other than registry cleaner. From optimization standpoint, they offer registry cleaner, junk file remover, disk defragmenter, Windows settings optimization, and even internet fine tune feature. This combination of features will truly optimize your system. And if you take notice, all of them are Windows utilities software. There is a reason why we pick this kind of software for your registry cleaning solution. It is because your search for optimization and Windows maintenance solution cannot be fulfilled only by a registry cleaner alone. Besides, most of these products are worth the same price as any common registry cleaners out there.

From the functions stand point, each product has advantages over the other. System Mechanics for instance, it is designed toward Windows repairing and recovery operation. One module that is absent in most of its competitor is Drive Medic which contains a set of maintenance tools to restore and repair damaged hard drive, partition, and boot records in a case when you failed to boot up your Windows. But if you want a more serious PC recovery and maintenance solution, we advise you to check Spotmau PowerSuite 2009. It is able to run independently outside any operating system and run every tool it has from there, helping you to fix every possible problem when your Windows fails to boot. But unfortunately, it has no trial version.

The rest of the products in the lineup are built toward optimization and general Windows maintenance. But it does not mean that they are less powerful in solving your Windows problems though. In fact, the other packages offer more optimization features compare to System Mechanics. One special interesting feature is TuneUp Utilities’ Disk Space Explorer. This module will help you get a big picture of what fill your hard drive. It will supply you information such as top space-wasting programs and files, dominant and most common file types, and detailed information on file population. All of the information is beautifully presented with graphical presentation. With the chart, you can focus your attention to the folders, files, or programs which take a lot of space and decide the next move.
