To speed up your computer, you should defragment your hard drive on a regular basis. The more you create, edit, or delete files, the more your computer will store files in separate areas scattered wherever it can find empty space. Defragmenting simply picks up all your files and neatly arranges them in continuous strips so your computer can spend less time searching for files and more time actually working.

Although defragmenting is familiar to most users, defragmenting Windows Registry may not be as well known. The Registry is nothing more than a database that contains user profiles, along with software and hardware settings. When Windows is running, it continually references the Registry.

Unfortunately, the more you install, delete, and generally use your computer, the more invalid and obsolete the data your Windows Registry collects becomes. Just as defragmenting streamlines the way your hard drive stores files, so can Registry defragmenting streamline the Registry so Windows can run more efficiently.

Abexo's Complete Registry Cleaner is a dedicated utility for optimizing the Registry in two ways. First, it removes invalid entries in the Registry that take up space and could slow down or crash your computer. After removing all invalid entries in the Registry, it then defragments the Registry by eliminating the empty spaces formerly occupied by the invalid entries.

For safety, the Complete Registry Cleaner can also undo any changes it makes to the Registry. So, if you find your computer acting erratically after defragmenting the Registry, you can restore your old Registry data to return your computer to its previous working condition.

So the big question is how will defragmenting the Registry affect your computer? After running the Complete Registry Cleaner and deleting 380 invalid entries on an old Athlon computer, Windows still ran fine but without any noticeable difference. Still, if you're experiencing frequent crashes or hang-ups, cleaning your Windows Registry might help. For $24 (with a 30-day money-back guarantee) the Complete Registry Cleaner is a useful utility that can insure your computer runs as efficiently as possible. It runs on Windows 98/NT/Me/2000/XP.
