Not free scan,but actual repair ? Or free repair after free scan? Why dosen’t XP restore reg. files & programs like 98 S.E. did? Thank You.
Oh, yes. There are literally TONS of free apps that do this. But playing with the registry isn’t something to be taken lightly.
There are only 3 apps that I would recommend for this chore:
CCleaner:

Registry Mechanic:

NTREGOPT:

CCleaner and RegistryMechanic both do really good jobs of cleaning the Windows registry. Yes, there are more "thorough" apps, but they may get rid of entries that you desperately need.
CCleaner is free, while RegMech is shareware, and CCleaner also has other functions as well, so it’s probably your best bet.
NTREGOPT simply restores your registry to Windows’ original registry, and compacts the registry as well. It’s also free and can be used in combination with either of the other two.
Good luck!!
