CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on May 28, 2009
This all-inclusive diagnostic program finds and repairs unnecessary registry files and hard-disk space. It also lets you manage your start-up programs and erases browsing history. Despite two trial limitations, we were impressed with Registry Repair Wizard's solid performance.
The user interface is well-designed and easy to understand. Command buttons representing the program's features reside on the left side of the window. Details for each feature reside on the right side. For our first task, we scanned our registry. Considering the task at hand, the program quickly found problem files. We liked that it separated the files into categories, and we were able to view the detailed findings of each category. On top of the 15-day trial period, the program only allows a maximum of 10 files to be removed. Still, we found that the program successfully removed the registry files we had selected. We were able to fully test the program's other features. We used the start-up manager to easily disable specific programs. The comprehensive privacy eraser cleared our browsing traces, Windows temporary folders, and recent file lists of common programs without a hitch.
An organized, built-in Help feature is included. Although it's a minor issue, the program did add a desktop icon without asking, but this is easily deleted. And even though the program is easy to use, we recommend that novices proceed with caution when dealing with their registry. But more experienced users will find this to be an essential tool for keeping their computer in tip-top shape.

Version: Registry Repair Wizard 2009 build 6.15
"Free trial is for scan, not a real try-before-you-buy"
Pros: Its easy to uninstall.
Cons: It scans your PC and gives you different numbers of error each scan, now the catch is you need to buy before it fixes your PC. So you'll be buying something you dont know if it will fix your comp.
Summary: If it lets you really try it out, I would have considered buying.

"Made a huge differnece in speed"
Pros: Free trial was great and resolved so many problems and made a huge difference in spped which convinced me to buy. Not intrusive like other 'free' products, where you can't get rid of them if you change your mind. I tried loads before buying this.
Cons: Can't think of anything.
Summary: I am a total amateur who was desperate for ANYTHING to get computer to stop freezing and running REALLY slow and this worked. I must have tried at least 5 other products and the trial products just infuriated me i.e. they tell you what the problem ... read more >>

"FRAUD! NO 44 customer reviews. I'm the ONLY ONE!"
Pros: THIS IS A FRAUD REVIEW
THERE ARE NO CUSTOMER REVIEWS TO GIVE IT 4 1/2 STARS.
BEWARE!Cons: EVERYTHING.
An APP that has to LIE about reviews is NOT an APP to be trusted.Summary: I don't trust non-existent customer reviews.
Neither should anyone. - See all 4 user reviews Write review
