: : My computer has been running slow. Somebody said it could me my registry needs cleaning. Is that true? I don't even know what my registry is, let alone how to clean it. Help!
: I've heard that too. But exactly what is the registry?
On Windows-based the Registry contains information, settings, options, and other values related to programs and hardware installed on your computer. When a program is installed, a new subkey containing settings like a program's location, its version, and how to start the program, are all added to the Windows Registry.
