Need a free registry clean as mine is is desperate need of a clean. I know all about how Registry Smart is a "scam" . Most the ones I found scan and find h errors but you have to pay fro a full version to clear them.
In my experience, "registry cleaners" aren't a good idea, even the ones that aren't a scam. In theory, they're a good idea but often times they can cause more problems than they fix. The registry should rarely be messed with, and even then ONLY if you really know what you're doing.
And it only takes a few hours anyway to quick wipe, install XP, run Windows Update a million times, install latest drivers, and then be done (install programs as you need them).
Agreed.
Just format your C: and start over once a year or so. If you only have one hard drive, partition it into two parts so that you can easily format your C: part (Windows / Programs) and not loose your music / Top Gear / etc. (D: drive).
