Features Of Registry Cleaner Software 7.12.01
The Registry Cleaner Software applications
come with some additional and useful tools that further help you optimize
your registry for better performance. These features are:
- Defrag Registry
– When you uninstall programs or perform registry clean up, several
undesired entries are removed from the registry database. Quite often,
these entries leave behind their placeholder empty keys within the
registry. These empty registry entries not only prevent the size of the
registry from going down but also fragment the registry files.
Using the Defrag Registry feature, we could easily fix registry fragmentation and compress the registry size by getting rid of empty entries. During the defragmentation process the Registry Cleaner Software application displays a statistics that informs about the size of the current registry files and the estimated size after de-fragmentation. After defragmentation was complete, we noticed a considerably increase in the performance of our test PC.
- Backup Registry
– Through this feature you can backup the registry. A feature of the
application allows you to select the location where you want to place
the backup. The backup is identified with the date of the backup along
with the time. Before you hit the ‘Backup Registry’ button you have the
choice of creating a System Restore Point by clicking on the appropriate
box.
- Restore Registry
– In case a need arises to restore the registry, you have the choice of
selecting any one of the previous backups. The backup you wish to
restore is identified by the date and time of the backup. This backup
can be easily recalled from the Previous Backup Location List.
With the help of the Registry Cleaner Software
7.12.01 cleaning application we were also able to optimize the internet
browsing and computer speeds of our test computer.
The application eliminated improper
startup processes, repaired the programs that created problems during system
shutdown, and improved the overall performance of our computer.
The Verdict
Our test team is impressed with the overall
performance of Registry Cleaner Software 7.12.01 registry cleaning
application.
It is a small application and so takes up very
little system resources. Downloading and installation is easy, and the
interface simple. A good tool for users who just need to fix their registry.
A novice or a non-technical user will not find any issues in using this
application.
Registry Cleaner Software comprises adequate
features considering the size of the application. What is impressive is the
feature that displays the level of threat of the errors detected during
scan. Many of the equally good applications do not have this feature.
The backup feature is another positive of this
application. So is the feature that allows easy restoration of any of the
previous backups. The de-fragmentation feature does a great job of
de-fragmenting the registry which optimizes the system’s performances.
The tool misses out on enabling users to
schedule automatic scans, which is a useful feature that helps you keep your
registry problem-free even when you forget all about it.
Our technical team that tested this
application finds this a good application that does just what it is designed
for.
We fully recommend Registry Cleaner Software
7.12.01 registry cleaning application to users who want a simple but
thorough tool to perform regular registry maintenance.
