Windows XP was launched in 2001 and became an instant hit, with the promise of a revolutionary system which actually made computing *fun* for the first time. With millions of people (including me) still relying on this operating system to power their computers, it's no wonder that 100's of registry cleaners have been developed to clean up all the problems on it. But with so much choice, which registry cleaner is the best?

The registry is simply a database which sits at the heart of Windows. It contains all the settings and options for your PC (everything from your desktop wallpaper to your latest emails) and is a very important part of your system. It's so important that Windows is constantly adding and updating the files inside it. Every time you use your PC, Windows is actually editing 100's of registry files. This is okay, but the problem is that XP constantly gets confused about which registry files it has open, and ends up corrupting and damaging many of them by saving them wrong.

When this happens, the registry files actually become hard for your computer to read, which makes your PC slow down dramatically. And with many XP machines having 1,000's of damaged registry files, the problem is very big. So to fix this issue, registry cleaners basically scan through the registry database, and your system files, and clean out all the problematic files inside it. The best registry cleaner is actually one which cleans out the most files and even though a handful of cleaners do this pretty well, there's actually one which stands out as being the best.

"RegGenie" is my favorite registry cleaner for XP, simply because it works so well at cleaning out even the most obscure of damaged files. It has an intelligent scanning engine, which allows it to find more problems than any other cleaner... making it a very powerful tool. It also uses a backup & restore facility, which allows it to clean up as many problems as possible without the fear of your computer being damaged.
