CNET Editors' review
In a field crowded with registry cleaners, this program's very fast scan stands out. Registry Fix Pro's basic interface merely lists 20 scan sections and a result window.
Program operation will appeal to novice and advanced users. Merely choose from the list of sections and press the scan button. The application quickly pages through your Registry to list all problems found. The utility doesn't give much information about the problems save a descriptive title and the full Registry key. Using the program's pull-down menu, users easily can select all or none of the listed problems or click check boxes to fix select items. Press a single key for immediate deletion of selected entries. XP users can opt to automatically create a system restore point before repairing errors. The 14-day demo is short, but unlike too many registry cleaners, this one lets you fix the errors it finds. In most cases, demos restrict the number of items or don't allow any cleaning at all, making it hard to fully evaluate.
Some testers reported Registry Fix Pro would fail with access violations for certain scan sections. However, most users should have no trouble with this effective Registry error-removal utility. It's worth a try for the fast scanning alone.
Publisher's Description
From Cleanersoft:
An increase in registry key errors is one of the top reasons for slow PC performance, windows errors, and computer crashes. The registry is a database containing important settings for your PC. When it becomes cluttered, your computer's performance will suffer. With Registry Fix Pro you can clean and repair the Windows registry quickly and safely. It will search the Windows registry for unnecessary registry keys and fix registry errors. This will leave your registry smaller, less cluttered, and with fewer registry keys pointing to missing files.
What's new in this version: Version 1.8 supports Windows 7.

"I presume it's doing good, but it's hard to say"
Version: Cleanersoft Free Registry Fix 1.8
Pros
No help files but you don't really need any - just click on Scan, there's a progress bar, takes about 4 minutes, then click on Fix Errors. Before 1st use make sure you go to File & Settings, & tick the box for Create system restore point.
Cons
It finds nothing till 1/2way through the scan, when a list of Non-existent Files or Folders shows, but at the end of the scan the list only shows Empty Registry Keys. If I fix errors then immediately scan again, it finds almost as many again.
Summary
DO NOT CONFUSE THIS WITH A SHAREWARE PRODUCT THAT IS ALSO CALLED FREE REGISTRY FIX which has bad user reviews on Cnet

"Found 13467 registry errors"
Version: Cleanersoft Free Registry Fix 1.8
Pros
This registry cleaner can find thousands of errors, which most free registry cleaners will not do.
Fixed the majority of errorsCons
Could not fix the 64 errors left, but this is a minor number
Summary
My computer was slow and I knew I needed to fix my registry. Anyway, this cleaner may not have fixed all of the errors, but it did fix the majority of them, which is good. My computer has now speeded up thanks to this tool. I would recommend it if your computer has slowed down and the registry needs to be fixed. Most free registry cleaners do not even find this amount of errors, so this is a very good free tool.
