CNET Editors' review
This registry cleaner does its main job quickly and accurately, but we also appreciate a few of its extra features. True to its name, the utility scans your PC's registry, then fixes any errors it finds.
The app's main interface is easy to grasp at first sight, letting you check and uncheck boxes when deciding which portions of the Registry to scan. For instance, the program looks for such entries as obsolete software, invalid fonts, bad shortcuts, and even spyware. It's also nice that Registry Repair offers a brief explanation of why each key is no longer necessary, but it still automatically backs up the Registry before you remove anything.
In addition to its main job, the application also can manage which programs launch on start-up. You'll also find a disk-cleanup utility and an uninstaller; these features are not remarkably different from Windows' built-in tools, but it's still nice to be able to access them from the app's main window. Everyday users who want to keep their computers free of junk will find Registry Repair a very helpful download.

"crashed my system"
Version: Glary Registry Repair 4.1.0.388
Pros
found many registry problems
Cons
severly damaged my computer system
Summary
Glary Registry Repair found many errors with my system. I opted to "repair all" which was a huge mistake. All the icons on my desktop dissapeared. The start menu was gone as well. Somehow Glary had also messed up my XP System Restore so there was no ability to undo the changes Glary had made. In the end, my entire system had to be re-built from scratch.
BEWARE, this may significantly harm your computer -
