  your kidding does me microsoft have a registry cleaner and optimizer free

  Microsoft does not provide such software. You can try third-party software.

  But it's very risky. These programs tend to damage the registry and in extreme cases even face serious consequences on the material.

  If there is any problem with your registry, you can either mention it here or google out. There are several solutions for each problem.

  Let me stress that neither me nor anyone else who warns the
  use of registry cleaners never said that they always cause
  problems. If they have always caused problems, they would disappear from
  the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry
  cleaner and never had a problem with it.

  The problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it
  the risk of a significant problem. And since there is no
  benefits of using a registry cleaner, running that risk is a very bad

• on the home page, the symbol of firefox has disappeared and there is an ad for registry cleaner?

  Yesterday, my homepage has changed - there is no normal firefox symbol with the little Fox hug th Earth. Just four color wheel, next to him "search results" then the field empty to enter in a search. Below that is an ad for a registry cleaner. It presents the new homepage of firefox?

  Hello, this looks like a problem maybe caused by adware on your pc. Please go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.). also, go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software you have in place and various other tools such as the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

  Remove a toolbar that has supported your Firefox or the homepage search
  Fix Firefox problems caused by malicious software

  afterwards please install the reset search addon - he'll come back more often customizations make these adware programs in default firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

• Is there a registry cleaner Microsoft recommends for XP SP3?

  SP3 is a very slow and bumpy ride.

  Using a registry cleaner is only likely to create a new even more intractable problem so I would recommend that you drop this idea.

  BTW the tis is not Microsoft even if you will meet staff of Support technique Microsoft in these forums. The forums are a peer to peer self-help support group.

  It is always sensible in this situation to achieve a malware check

  Start the computer in safe mode with network and download and install Malwarebytes (free version for individuals only), updated definitions and run in safe mode. Disable other security software while you do the analyses.

  Download and run SuperAntiSpyware (Free Edition)

• Microsoft has a better record cleaner?

  In Windows 7 I have a disc cleaner which is not very effective. Microsoft has a better? Why should I clean manually %temp%. Sometimes, I have to do each one individually.

  If you're talking about the Temp folder in the Windows folder, I do not think that disk cleanup
  deals with this issue. The Temp folder is more likely to have files that are used, which can not be deleted at the time these files to the user------AppData \ Temp folder.
  [EDIT: I just typed folder in the search bar, and it seems that you were referring to that]
  [user------AppData \ Temp folder]

  Even in this case, disk cleanup deletes all files user------AppData \ Temp folder.
  Maybe because Windows is still considered viable, but I did have a problem manually
  delete all files from the user-AppData-Temp file myself - something that has always been difficult
  with XP because it always seemed to want to stand on a number of files in this folder.
  While the files in the Temp folder can sometimes cause problems, it is not really necessary to manually delete everything as far as the performance of the system are concerned. Disk Cleanup is usually a good
  enough job regarding the 'cleansing' of the Temp folder in this regard.

  Anyway – CCleaner is a popular software to do more full disc "cleanings".

• What is the best way to correct the registry errors without the use of a registry cleaner in XP?

  I am sorry to raise this issue that so many people who have asked me.  I read pages and pages of discussions on the MS forum on this subject, and without exception, all the experts said Microsoft registry cleaners are completely unnecessary and that junk in the registers has no performance impact at all.  Instead, they say, to do x, y and z.  I am running Windows XP on my desk for five years, and gradually, he got so slow it's almost unbearable.  It takes 10-15 minutes just to start, and sometimes it takes 2 minutes or more just to open a window of browser (IE8) or go to the previous page by using the arrow to the left.  Before you tell me all the things it could be, please let me say that:

  1. my PC has not always been this slow!  It is getting worse.

  2. all my Windows software is up to date.  I have automatic updates on.

  3. I have a lot of disk space, almost 75% of free space on a hard drive of 80 GB.

  4. my PC is free of viruses, spyware and Trojans.  I have McAfee antivirus running and I also sometimes run Malwarebytes and Trojan Killer, because they always find things that don't have McAfee.

  5. I defragment my hard drive on a regular basis.

  6. I regularly delete all my temporary files by using the Windows Disk Cleanup utility.

  7. I have very little, if any "Add-ons".  No toolbar Yahoo or Google (or Bing!).

  8. I removed nearly every program that I start, so that they are not running in the background.

  9. I uninstalled all the programs that I don't use.

  However, I still have a slow ever-more computer.  Sometimes, when I see ads on TV to increase the speed of my PC, I download the 'free' software, and they claim to find hundreds or thousands of "registry errors.  When I look at the newspapers, I see many entries in registry for 'Netscape' and 'Google Earth', which I uninstalled years ago, as well as entries for the videos that I downloaded, seen once, and deleted a long time ago.

  So, what's the problem?  If it's not related to my registry (which Trojan Killer says has more 6 000 entries!), what else could be?  I would appreciate greatly any advice you can give, because there are dozens of companies on their touting their registry cleaners and the uninstall (for a price) programs, and after reading reviews of the MS MVPs, I'm skeptical of their claims.  Thank you.  :)

  I can't disagree with a lot of things have already been said.

  I'm willing to accept that your machine does actually takes 10 to 15 minutes on the clock. It's completely absurd.

  Some people call your "Windows Rot" problem. Becomes just the slower windows over time. It is a collection of things that are happening in the background. Yes I believe that the register contributes. Using a registry cleaner is not a "magic" solution But it can help a little.

  The PC care program/process you described is above average.  I suggest you add CCleaner. Disk Cleanup is not bad, CCleaner is better, cleaning of other stuff which does not resemble the DC. It won't be a significant difference because disk space is not your problem, but it will help a little.

  'Play' with the registry is VERY risky. If you decide to go ahead, I would say that first make you a copy of the full image backup using a utility that can be started and run from a CD/DVD. Just in case the registry cleaner breaks of your machine.

  Registry cleaners is that they take a "best estimate" to what is no longer necessary. Sometimes they think wrong. And each vacuum cleaner will clean slightly different sets of places.  If the tool does not provide a way to back up the registry before you start cleaning, do not use it. He is not careful enough.

  If vacuuming offer 'levels' of cleaning, enjoy. Open for more aggressive cleaning, with resetting and long series of normal use between cleanings.

  You are looking for a tool which also makes registry "defragmentation". The registry is a database that get disorganized by additions and deletions. Defragmentation will be re - organize and get rid of a 'lost' space, making it the smallest file, afterwards faster to read.  It is not something you need to do frequently, but since you've never done it in 5 years, it would help, after cleaning registry.

  Another place to find CPU and RAM wasted resources is Windows Services. These are small programs that start at boot time. They run in the background and provide support services to all applications or specific applications.  Many applications services are running even though you don't really need them. You can find information on which you can set by Googling for 'Windows XP hardening'. There are a lot of sites with good information. They call it hardening because by disabling unnecessary stuff, you leave less possible openings for the "bad guys" to the attack.

  Ultimately, I think your best bet will simply bite the bullet and re - install windows and all your applications. It's the best way to restore your computer to almost any performance fees factory. (It is not exactly factory fresh because you need to add a ton of Windows updates).

  Before you re-install, do copy image 1 or more full backups. At least one must be done using a tool that will easily allow you to extract the files. You data backup files separately to make it easier to restore the reinstallation. IE, copy it to a USB key.

  Many "experts" actually expect to, and do, re - install windows every 6-12 months!  I think it's a bit exaggerated, but they swear by it.

  Once you do your re - install, create a copy of the magnified image
  Install a firewall application (before the windows updates)
  Once you do all updates of windows, create a copy of the magnified image
  After that you re-install all your apps, create another copy of the complete picture.

  In this way, in the future, you have more current points to restore your computer to. It will reduce the time you spend to get back to the current configuration.

  On a 5 year old XP machine, you have probably 512 MB - 1 GB of RAM. You might also consider taking in the shop (or DIY) and bump the RAM up to at least 2 GB or better still max out.  The current versions of the applications use much more memory than they did 5 years ago. Even XP will be since he has been seriously corrected since then.

• The CCleaner registry cleaner reports "invalid or empty the file class."

  Original title: when using CCleaner (cleaning the registry), the only problem that arises is; 'Class file invalid or empty', how can I solve this problem?

  After using CCleaner, registry cleaner, CCleaner is displayed the following problem;

  Problem: Invalid or empty the file class

  Data:.tif\openWithProgids\MSPaper.Document

  Registry key: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\fileExts\.tif\OpenWithProgids

  How can I solve this problem once and for all?

  When I use 'Registry Cleaner' "CCleaner" from the program for "chose to solve problems", it doesn't permanently solves the problem, as whenever I run the CCleaner program at a later date, it is here once again!

  I have the 32-bit version of Windows XP service pack 3 and Windows Explorer 8, is installed on this desktop computer.

  Please, help me to solve this problem.

  Thank you for any help you can give me!

  The problem with registry cleaners in general is that they often report "of the problems' when there is no problem.  If the user actually deletes an entry from the registry in response to such a notice, then it could well be a problem.

  Just because you have not known - again - a problem with the Ccleaner registry cleaning tool does not mean that you won't.  Because the 'cleansing' of the registry has not been shown to have an effect on the performance of the system, the risk of deleting something important makes use of stupid registry cleaners.  Read the two links in my previous post.

  As I wrote originally, the 'problem' reported by Ccleaner is probably due to his inability to properly manage the data type "REG_NONE" in the registry key.

  The way to fix this is to ignore and stop using Ccleaner registry that tells you that there is a 'problem '.

• What would you say is the best registry cleaner available?

  I and many experts in these forums will tell you that the registry cleaners usually do more harm than good. They often claim that correct registry "errors" that simply did not matter. To try to resolve the 'mistakes' unimportant they can often cause havoc on the PC, causing either that it doesn't work properly or at all.

  Registry cleaners don't consider as a panacea for your computer problems. If you have a specific problem, are looking for a specific answer. People in these forums will be happy to help you.

• What happened to Windows Live Clean Up scan (registry cleaner)? It was very useful (for me at least)

  This registry cleaner from Microsoft has been the only tool that I could trust because most of the time (unlike other cleaning products), he finds entries that were truly wrong. And although many say that registry cleaning is not really effective, this isn't what I've lived with this cleaner. I see that now Windows Live Safety Center and Windows Live OneCare were dropped, and only a virus scan is now supported with Microsoft Security Essentials. But what about the Clean Up scanner? If it was not supported in any other form it is a real mistake in my humble OPINION.

  Hi AlexKn80,

  The tool is now available from Microsoft.

  You say Microsoft Essentials. Do you mean Microsoft J.4 Essentials or something else? Where do you have it?

  Microsoft Security Essentials is an excellent anti-virus software, but he's not trying to sell you anything. What you describe looks like you are infected by a malware program trying to sell you something.

  Essentially if you used a registry cleaner and it has an undo feature you should use and uninstall the program. I not worry - or do whatever it is - on the registry entries found by a registry cleaner. Even if you have some additional registry entries, they will not affect how Windows XP/Vista/7 to perform a strand. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
