Many computer users are not aware that there are problems with the performance of their PC and the cause of their slow windows computer is actually due to some underlying registry problems.
Statistics show that about ninety percent of one hundred computer users still have hidden files stored in their registry and they do not know that these files corrupt the system.
If these files build up and are not fixed there will be problems with the registry and soon these problems can lead to failure to load windows or in extreme situations where system crash and freezing will occur or to the critical blue screen death that can stop windows working at all if the errors are critical.
There is still hope for you though, even in this situation and the best option for you to seek is to use a registry repair utility.
There are some things you need to know first.
You may see the options on your system especially on your windows start menu which lets you update windows automatically.
Do you have any idea what this is for? These are updates for windows itself and many are security updates to protect the integrity of your computer against malicious software.
Each time you run an update a new entry is made in your registry and the old one will be useless.
This is one of the reasons why some systems have a lot of orphaned, shortcuts, links, bad paths that are present and becomes the cause for system troubles.
This even occurs when you install programs, program updates and remove or replace hardware.
New registry entries are added and the old ones left behind.
The result is your computer starts to suffer from slow windows performance as it has to go through all these entries.
Even the ones that are no good to find what it needs.
All your applications which are processed receive an application id for it to be recognized.
These ids should be cleaned up or discarded after use, and for many this is not done properly so a lot of confusion happens in the system.
Your registry repair utility will also help you clean up the presence of unwanted items in the list of recently opened files.
If you notice a suddenly and drastic drop in performance this is an indication of more than just minor errors.
This is usually the result of major registry errors or worse, malicious software on your computer altering files and tracking keystrokes.
A registry scanner will uncover all of this since all software has to have a registry entry to function.
Once the scanner finds it you can remove it all in seconds and get rid of your slow windows computer and get your fast computer back.
