actually, i am using tune up utilities for fixing registry errors.
but uniblue registry booster shows more errors than TUU. which one is the best? i can’t afford full version of any but i have full version of TUU.
It’s common for registry fixers to report "errors" in your registry however they are just erroneous entries which are outdated or just unused.
They don’t harm your computer at all — not unless they are malicious and have been put there because of a virus infection.
That said, removing these entries may do more harm than good. If you accidentally remove an entry that is currently being used by a program, it can cause further problems down the road.
As the adage goes — if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Neither should be used in reality. Registry errors unless causing visible problems should not be repaired using automated tools as the potential for causing more problems is too great.
Using something like CCleaner (which is free) to clean up your registry is as close as you should go.

Registry is the database for the Operating systems and apps that sit on the OS. So dont mess around with it.
Keeping the registry trim by cleaning unwanted entries is different.
the OS and apps constantly take and put values from the registry to make things work
