IOBit Registry Cleaner

iobit.com Toolbox start screen
Goto IObit toolbox from Major Geeks.com and install this tasty piece of software.  It comes as a .zip file so unpack it to a folder of your choice and remember where it is.  Link "Toolbox.exe" to your desktop because you will want to use it often.  It is an all in one program that will combined with all the other tips I have posted guide you to a sweet running Windows computer.  There is so much to this program that I will write an article for each of the tools within toolbox showing you how to use each of them.  This snapshot above shows which pieces of the software I use most often. When you first load this program the "Recently" window will be blank.

In the left panel select "Clean" then select "Registry Cleaner".  This registry cleaner is IMHO (In my humble opinion) by far the best.  Of the many I have used, this has never once caused any of the systems I have fixed any trouble.  Note: BEWARE of other registry cleaners they can seriously harm your machines.

On your taskbar a separate window will open (click it) and off the hop two windows appear.  The most prominent window has the keys of the registry the tool will scan.  For best results scroll to the bottom of the list and check-mark "Deep Scan."  Then click "Scan" (to the left of the "Close" button.
