Use with confidence Registry scares me. Other software inaccurately read my registry, deleting essential components needed for my system. My last scan using other software found over 200 registry "errors", correcting a handful and prompting me to delete "missing" or "invalid" entries. Registry Mechanic takes the guesswork out of keeping your system clean. Unlike the other software I used, it doesn't show me an abundance of so-called errors and prompt me to tell it what to do. Registry Mechanic simply scans your registry, finds errors, shows you the number of errors found, and asks you if you want them corrected. It seems to do this quite efficiently and I'm thankful to say I have not had to undo any "corrections" it's made as I've had to do with other software.
