Editor's review of Registry Booster

• 3.0 stars

• "Registry Booster"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Registry Booster 2.0.1178.3872

This easy-to-use tool lets you remove faulty Registry entries that slow down your computer, but the unreasonable trial period won't appeal to most users. Registry Booster presents an aesthetically pleasing interface with four sections--System Overview, Registry Scan, Settings, and Restore--organized in tabs. Among other things, the program scans for invalid ActiveX controls, file extensions, application paths, and file associations. You can minimize it to your system tray and perform error scanning in the background. Before you can proceed in removing entries, the program prompts you to back up your Registry. The scan was quick and errors were displayed for review with check boxes to indicate removal, but the trial version is limited to 15 repairs. Also included is a Registry Defragmenter to remove gaps left by the repair, although this feature also disabled in the demo. Though the trial limitation is on the stingy side, this program worked quickly and is easy enough for anyone to use.

  "They are malware-distributors!"

  by hunhistory on July 2, 2009

  Pros: Nothing, I only like it's graphics.

  Cons: This is a rogue software chasing people to buy it, and after they buy it, it ruins the users registry.

  Summary: This is a rogue software chasing people to buy it, and after they buy it, it ruins the users registry. Please don't buy this software, I did it my self, and it was a big mistake! I was not able to run Command Prompt, Registry Editor, and lots of Win... read more >>

  "registry error not found-had to remove manually"

  by loish357 on June 11, 2009

  Pros: since it is all behind the scenes and did not resolve my problem it is hard to evaluate

  Cons: did not resolve my problem and I wasted $30 on product and then had to go into registry and manually remove the file so how good is this product???

  Summary: I spent hours on the uniblue website trying to buy the product and it would not accept my entries which were correct. turned off the computer tried another computer. said you could chat but that did not work either. I should have realized then not ... read more >>

  "They are so full of bull..."

  by fparis on May 30, 2009

  Pros: none. I won´t try it. And I tell you why...

  Cons: This guys of uniblue are lying. Go to their web page an you will see by your self. They claim to have win a lot of awards (Cnet among them) that are not true.
  So, are you gonna try a product from some one that lies like that?

  Summary: They claim:
  Cnet editor choice award - false
  Cnet five star user rating - false
  ZDnet editor choice award - also false
  So, to resume, They are full of Bull sh...t

  "Preferred CCleaner or Regcleaner"

  by Bruwster on May 28, 2009

  Pros: It's easy to use. Idiot-proof almost. It has a pretty interface too.

  Cons: I could not uninstall the demo without using the Add or Remove Programs option. I don't like that it runs a scan on startup by default.

  "A REASONABLE SOLUTION"

  by TOM-CAT_Master on May 19, 2009

  Pros: It is a fast registry cleaner with an easy to use and friendly user interface which everyone can correspond him with in in a few minutes.

  Cons: I've just found a little crash in registry defragment but maybe it was sudden. It didn't crash finally of course.
  the method of its limitation in trial version is a little tormentor, I hope they will solve it.

  Summary: Finally it is a very good solution for registry safety and I didn't expose to problems after scanning my registry with it.
  
  THANKS TO CNET A LOT....
