Do you web designers use any registry cleaners or utilities? Which ones?

Back in the days that I was a Windoze user, I had Registry Mechanic to manage and maintain the integrity of my registry. It gets fair overall reviews and worked pretty well (3 out 5 by my standards). My special complaints were that:

– its creation of restore points was unreliable
– letting it run at startup WAY slowed the process of waking Windoze

On the bright side, it never broke anything that I could detect.

I’ve been a pure Linux user for the last few years (and now will be forever); hence, I can’t speak to the current quality of the RM product. PCTools has a web ad for the product at:

CNet reviews it at (lots of user reviews included…some, not so flattering, but hey, for $30, whaddya expect?):

On a tangential note, as a Linux user, I (hallelujah!) no longer need to worry about registry maintenance.

    Registry Cleaners are not just for Web Designers.
    The fact is, Web Designers can’t even create one themselves.
    Registry Cleaners are programs created by Software Programmers/Developers.
    They created it for everyone to use.
    As for your registry, if you’re not sure if there is something wrong with it, don’t use any Registry Cleaner with it. You might just mess it all up.
    Good luck!
