Doest anyone use Registry Cleaner?
I'm wondering if it's worth $30.00. I downloaded the trial version & it said I had 110 errors in my registry. But, of course it won't fix them unless I buy it.

Any comments?

:hi:

1. I use regseeker it's free and i've never had a problem with it.
get it here from snapfile.com http://www.snapfiles.com/get/regseeker.html

Just for safety sake do a system restore point(if you have XP) before running it. If not you can still reinstall anything that gets removed by regseeker.

4. In CrapCleaner
Click on issues tab and run, I've had one program stop working after using the issues button but you can always restore if this happens.

6.  registry cleaner
is not a free program and possibly works on the premises of false positives like some spyware detection programs that you have to pay for. If registry cleaner did not come up with much would you still want to pay $30.00 for it? Just a tip: Be very careful with registry cleaner programs or you may turn into a computer tech the hard way after you crash your machine.
