Registry Healer

Registry Healer is an application that lets you fix common problems found in the Windows registry entries.

The interface of the program is user-friendly. You can perform a scan for invalid paths, registered file types, ActiveX/COM references, fonts, application paths, registered help files, shared DLLs and known DLLs.

But you can also scan the computer for errors regarding obsolete start menu items, entries which automatically run at system startup and software entries that you never use.

Do not worry about any Windows problems which may occur after cleaning the registry. Registry Healer automatically makes a backup before deleting anything.

You can view the total entries found and selected for correction, as well as the current phase (e.g. scanning the registry or a particular directory). You can pause or delete the process at any time.

You can manually create a full registry backup, save found entries as a TXT document, highlight items for correction, copy a key path to clipboard, open an entry in Registry Editor, add items to an exclusion list, and more.

The software uses a low-to-moderate amount of system resources and takes plenty of time to complete a full scan on the Windows registry. However, there is a user manual at your disposal and Registry Healer is very thorough. It's unfortunate that the demo version has some severe limitations (as you can see in the Product Description below). Otherwise, we strongly recommend this tool to all users.
