Need Registry Cleaner/Defragger
Hello everyone,
I know this has been discussed here before, but I do not think there was ever a solid resolution as to what was the BEST Registry Cleaner/Defragger for Win7. I tried using RegistryPatrol, as is suggested by the guy who writes the long paper on optimizing your system. However it did not seem to write to my screen properly, so I did not think it would be good enough to be a Windows 7 registry cleaner. (I mean, do you really want a program that cannot even do a simple screen write fooling around with your computer's "brain"?)
Then I read a review here recommending Windows 7 Manager. Sure enough, it does have every feature imaginable. Although it did freeze up on the duplicate file deletion portion of the software. Also, the registry cleaner/fixer had registry entries which it said were invalid, but were for files I recognized, like the .PST file that Outlook uses. Not good. Furthermore, it gave no explanation of the reason it had chosen these entries for deletion. I opted out of that and am now searching for a good registry fixer. I do not want one that will catch thousands of errors because I do not have that many.
What I DO want is one that, in addition to listing the entries it wants to eliminate, gives the reason why it is eliminating them. Does anything like this exist? Oh, I would also like one that tells me which programs are setting themselves up to run in the background for auto updating, so that I can disable them.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Juan
