Registry Easy

With each new version of Registry Easy the program keeps getting better. New in version 4.7 is the history records cleaner which will delete your browsing history with just one click of the mouse. This a nice feature for protecting your privacy. Also new is the registry optimizer which will speed up your system by optimizing your startup/shutdown and network menu displays.

The user interface that you are presented with when you first launch Registry Easy is very easy to understand. You are taken directly to the “scan and clean” section of the program and given three choices; Registry Cleaner, Evidence Cleaner and Junk File Cleaner. If you pick Registry Cleaner you can either scan automatically for any registry errors or manually pick specific areas of the registry you would like Registry Easy to scan.

If you choose to scan for all possible registry problems, scan times are a little longer than many of the other registry repair programs we have reviewed here, but it is still quite speedy overall. Once the scan is complete you are shown a complete list of any registry errors that have been found. Each invalid registry entry has a check box next to it so you can manually pick and choose which of them to delete. Or you can let Registry Easy remove them all with one mouse click.

The Junk File Cleaner is a nice feature. It searches your Windows operating system looking for invalid entries such as large files that were created and left behind by a program crash. It will also seek out any zero-size files and temporary files that are taking up space in the registry which can cause problems.

The Evidence Cleaner in Registry Easy isn’t something you usually find in a registry repair program but it is a welcome addition. Using this feature you can rid your computer of browser cookies, internet history and address bar information so that your privacy will be greatly protected.

Like many other registry cleaner programs Registry Easy also comes with a backup and undo feature so if a deletion of a vital registry file does occur you can easily restore your registry using the backup file.

Another useful feature of Registry Easy is the Browser HOM Manager. Using this feature you can take control of your Internet Explorer objects. I haven’t seen this feature in any of the numerous registry cleaner programs I have reviewed and it’s great to have if your browser ever becomes infected with spyware so that you can restore it back to how it was before the infection occurred.

Registry Easy has a number of other features such as the ability to block Active-X,  tweak memory settings and setting up scheduled scans.
