Has your computer slowed to a crawl? Does it take forever for applications to load? If so, then it's because of problems in your Windows registry, and you need to get a clean Windows registry in order to get your computer running the way it is supposed to, and the way it used to.
But before we look at why you need a clean Windows registry, we first need to look at what causes the registry to become corrupt.
And at this point, you might be asking what the registry is.
The registry is a big database which stores all of the files that Windows must utilize in order for your computer to run.
Every Windows operating system has a registry; it would not function without it.
New files are always being added to this registry, and because of this, the registry over time gets too big, and this affects other applications.
That is why your computer is running so slow.
So, how do you achieve a clean registry? You can try to do it on your own, but this is not recommended because of all the mistakes that can occur.
Editing the registry is very tricky, and even one simple error can spell big problems.
Also, some people try to get a clean Windows registry by downloading a free registry repair program off the internet, but these often have spyware loaded in them, and spyware can add a whole other set of problems, most notably leaving you open to identity theft.
