Luckily there's a tool to improve this situation and restore the system's speed and performance, and it's called PC Tools Registry Mechanic. Despite its name, this program does much more than just cleaning, defragmenting and fixing the Windows Registry. It also tunes up services, optimizes the system, monitors current performance and manages other core elements.

PC Tools Registry Mechanic features a nicely designed, colorful interface where you can access all the program's tools, conveniently divided into three main categories: Optimize, Monitor and Windows tools – as well as Help Center and Options. All tools are pretty self-explanatory, but in case you're not sure about how to use any of them, you can access the program's detailed documentation.

On the downside, I was a bit disappointed when I realize you can't fix all of your Registry issues in the trial version, and also when I saw that most Windows tools in PC Tools Registry Mechanic were actually built-in system tools.

PC Tools Registry Mechanic is a complete system optimization tool that not only cleans Windows Registry, but also enables you to optimize other elements on your system.

PC Tune-Up is a slick looking application that takes you through a thorough registry clean up and defrag with minimal fuss. The interface is both attractive and intuitive, and designed for anyone to use.

The optimization process has four steps. First is a backup, in the unlikely event of any mistakes being made. After that, PC Tune-Up scans your registry files, fixes any problems (you can choose to exclude certain files if you wish), and then defragments the registry (organizing it more efficiently). It's extremely easy, and if you want even less input, click the "magic button", and the whole process will be done automatically.

PC Tune-Up also features some memory saving system tweaks that can contribute to speeding up windows in general. the trial version won't fix all of your registry problems, but it will complete the defrag process and activate the optimization tweaks.

PC Tune-Up is a user friendly and fast working registry cleaner, with no irritations at all.
