Reviewed by: CNET staff on January 14, 2009
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.

Version: Wise Registry Cleaner 2.84 build 89
Pros: Contrary to another review, I found it to even work on Vista. However, other downloads must be installed or moved first or, just as the other review said, those other downloads will be dumped.

Version: Wise Registry Cleaner 2.84 build 89
"Better than what I was using."
Pros: I used Glarysoft's RegistryCleaner 1.1 for some time but this is no longer freeware so you don't get any updates anymore. I decided to try something new. First I ran Glarysoft's product then the Wise reg. cleaner and lo and behold it found about half a dozen safe to delete entries that Glarysoft's product missed. This application is really easy to use so even a novice shouldn't have any problems. Always use the backup feature first just to be on the safe side. Just delete the safe to delete entries unless your absolutely sure you don't need some of the other entries. If you do make a mistake and delete something needed just undo your most recent fix. It's that easy!
Cons: Scan time is a little longer than my previous software. Who ever designed this software, English must be a second language to them because some of the information banners are a little funky but still understandable.

Version: Wise Registry Cleaner 2.84 build 89
Pros: It works.
Cons: If you do not watch what it has selected you could end up dumping some of your downloads you wanted to keep. I deleted it. Not a Vista product.
