CNET Editors' review
This program provides utilities to quickly tidy up your Registry, but lacks some features of competing applications. Wise Registry Cleaner 3 Free has an intuitive interface and is relatively easy to use.
The program works quickly, using very few of the computer's resources. This cleanup tool offers an undo option, which is important any time you deal with the Registry. Users can even set the program to check the Registry automatically, although there is no option to set a specific time for this function. One feature this program lacks is a severity level warning. A harmless entry from a deleted program is shown as having no distinct differences from an entry from a harmful virus or malware. It does have easy-to-understand graphic warnings for any entry that may be dangerous to delete, though.
It also would be nice if users were offered the option to select/deselect all, since there may be dozens of entries but only be one or two severe issues in the Registry. Still, this freeware Registry cleaner proved effective, and we recommend it for users comfortable working with the registry.

"BAIT AND SWITCH PROMO"
Version: Wise Registry Cleaner 6.21
Pros
Gee let's see, it removed 100 errors!?
Cons
Just a come on to make you buy their whole product. After finding 600 errors and then on the second scan 2,000 errors I pushed the "fix" button and it saye the typical, we can only fix 100 of these and if you want to fix more you need to buy the complete package. JUST ANOTHER COME ON TO BAIT AND SWITCH YOU INTO BUYING THEIR PRODUCT.
Summary
I am seriously dissapointed in CNET that they would allow these kind of crap to go on. I searched for FREE Registry fix and even had to refine my search more to FREE from other choices that you pay for and what do I get but another CHEESY, SNEAKY download that is nothing more than a bait and switch scam to get your money that I am tired of getting.

I have been using WRC in combination with Kingsoft PC Doctor (free too) for 3 months now on any machine I come across. AWESOME. I threw out a lot of paid programs (no offense, good stuff too) an run WRC once every 15 days or so. I love the Registry Defrag option. All is well. Strongly recommend !
Cons

Pros
Removes a lot of junk.
Cons
Can be very harse, hard on computer.
Summary
Use winaso daily, Wise reg weekly. But the Optimizer messed up my Win 7 laptop. Used restore point and did not use Optimizer. Worked well then. So be carefull. Win 7 is not as good as XP and can be messed up easily. My XP got super fast after a full clean.

"Its a very good little tool"
Version: Wise Registry Cleaner 6.21
Pros
Light, easy to understand interface, free.
Cons
None worth mentioning.
Summary
This is a useful little tool that can optimize enough for you to notice a performance gain.
There are tons of these programs around and more do harm than good but this one ticks the right boxes.
Its small and very light and scans are quick.
I think the interface may fool you into thinking its a toy program but it does some serious work.
Be careful what you are checking, it describes what all the tweaks are but some may be tempted to tick all boxes and damage their OS.
The tweaks on the windows gui are pretty efficient at speeding up programs load time, it also speeds up shutdown by closing programs quicker.
It also reduces menu delay time making Windows feel more snappy and responsive.
This and the cleaner are handy wee utilities.. -
