Feature Set [5/5]

Registry First Aid has a distinctive step by step registry repair wizard that guides users in detecting and repairing invalid Windows registry entries. What makes this tool unique is that unlike typical registry tools that immediately delete invalid objects in the registry, Registry First Aid actually fixes errors by identifying lost programs pointed to by the registry entry and attempts to find the correct path to the file associated with it. A clever feature that essentially fixes errors instead of removing them outright from the registry thus preventing even further damage to the system. Once the correct path is detected it then replaces current object’s value with the correct path and file types associated with it can now load correctly using the value. In case the program is not found (which means the program has already been deleted or uninstalled in the system) the user then has the option to delete the entry later after current scanning is finished.

Aside from the ability to fix Windows registry errors, Registry First Aid also has the Registry Defragmentation feature that compresses registry records by removing empty, unused or duplicate registry objects thus cutting down each object’s size by up to 97%. This is very important since smaller registry means that the operating system can boot up quicker or process the registry faster than before as Windows spends fewer time loading registry data and even responds faster to program requests such as those that utilizes registry information (e.g. opening documents and spreadsheets or retrieving program data needed to run installed applications.)

Currently, Registry First Aid can detect and correct registry errors caused by invalid application paths, invalid file associations, invalid help files, autorun programs, invalid DLL’s, obsolete start menu items, unused software entries and invalid font files. Users of this software can specify the scope of detection, whether to limit scanning only on the current user’s registry copy or make a global registry scan for all users.

Ease of Installation [5/5]

Registry First Aid’s installation package comes in a standard executable file of about 3 MB in size. Installation process is a simple process and requires no manual system configuration. Installing this software only requires the user to specify the path where the user wishes to install the application (usually C:\Program files\RFA) and setup will install itself without the need for user intervention. Setup usually takes 1 to 3 minutes to install depending on the speed of your system.

Help/Support [4.5/5]

One thing Registry First Aid users will surely notice is the automated bug reporting feature. Clicking the Contact Support link on the Help menu opens up a small window that detects the current state of Registry First Aid files, saves the gathered information on a text file and automatically attached it to a new Outlook mail message. The users can then type in their concerns while giving Rose City developers an accurate assessment of the software’s current state and obtain an overview of what may have caused the errors. Registry First Aid, however, lacks phone in support and toll free hotlines.

Safety [5/5]

Dealing with the system registry involves risks that may impede or even damage it when incorrectly done. The user may accidentally choose to delete important registry entries or alter its value without noticing. Registry First Aid includes an important feature that prevents this mishap. From the main program window, users can choose to automatically create full system registry backups and set its frequency. These backups can then be stored on the disk and can be used to revert any accidental changes to the registry in the future.

Software Stability [5/5]

Registry First Aid was tested and found to be stable both on low and high-end machines. Average memory usage is from 2.6kb up which is within acceptable range. Scanning, though, can be slow on some instances especially when locating lost programs from the disks. Although this can be resolved by setting which drives to search for programs from the Program Settings window.

Summary [4.9/5]

Registry First Aid’s revolutionary features capable of rigid registry error detection and correction earned it a respectable place in the commercial software industry. It’s practical yet attractive user interface adds to the many significant features this software already has. Certainly one of our best pick for this month.

Registry First Aid’s is priced starting at $14 up to $27.95 for bulk and regular orders, consecutively. Add $6 to get the product in CD.

Fortunately, we came upon a registry repair utility with excellent registry error fixing capability that performs well on Windows Vista and XP. The software is RegCure from Pareto Logic, a registry repair utility that reliably detects anomalies in the system registry which other utilities usually overlook. The software comes with an eye-catching yet easy to use user interface, simplified user navigation, straight forward reporting and even comes with some very useful tools such as Windows startup programs management and many other features.

Feature Set [5/5]

RegCure showcases an attractive and user-friendly interface where users can easily switch views and navigate between components. Iconized menu buttons are arranged in order of importance and presented in a way that easily suggests it’s functionality in a glance.

Current version is capable of detecting registry errors caused by invalid COM and ActiveX controls. It also checks for existence of invalid references to Dynamic Link Libraries (DLL) shared by applications. There are times when users unknowingly move application files from its installation directory to another folder that eventually causes the registry to lose reference to its location. RegCure finds the new location of the file and corrects the registry to point to it. This process applies to application paths, help files, program shortcuts and Windows startup items. It can also fix missing file associations that cause certain file types to fail to load when it can’t find the appropriate application to open it.

Aside from the feature mentioned above, RegCure has the ability to optimize system performance by removing unused empty registry objects often left behind by uninstalled applications, compressing the size of the Windows registry for better and faster performance.

Additional functionalities are added to current versions of this software. Startup Management, an addition to RegCure, enables users to view and manage programs set to load during system startup. They can chose to enable, disable or even delete startup items using this tool. This feature is essential for users who want to remove unwanted programs that autoload themselves during Windows bootup.

One of these is AMUST Registry Cleaner which promises not only to fix errors on the Windows system registry but, allegedly, also cleans hard drives for unwanted files that clutter the system and oftentimes create adverse effect on the system performance. Let’s find out how this registry tool performs in action.

Feature Set [3.5/5]

The very first thing you’ll notice with AMUST Registry Cleaner is the software’s sleek professional design. Each feature is grouped together into buttons which refreshes the main display window and displays the controls for the selected functionality, which is a good first impression. Users can scan and correct invalid registry entries, create reports and undo recent changes made by the software, create full registry backups, compact the registry for faster and optimum performance, schedule registry scan, choose which entries to ignore during tests and modify system settings such as which drives to ignore and backup and restore paths. All in all, these features are considered typical for a Windows registry repair tool and in these areas AMUST Registry Cleaner performs above expectations.

What makes AMUST Registry Cleaner unique is the Disk Cleaner utility bundled with this software. Clicking the Disk Cleaner icon at the bottom menu launches a separate window which starts a disk scan for physical drives of your computer. The Disk Cleaner window actually mimics Windows Explorer’s look except that it displays graph icons of each folder that it scans. One thing you’ll immediately notice is that the scan is a bit slow and may sometimes cause your system to seem to hang for a second or two even on fast units with loads of RAM.

After the scanning is finally done, folders will be displayed with pie graphs indicating either the percent of disk space the folder consumes or the percentage of potential space to free up. However, we’re not sure what this really means and things just start to get really confusing from here. There seems to be no option on what to do with the folders it displays. Context menu for each folder just gives you an option to explore it, which can be done using the good old Windows Explorer. The File menu simply displays the drives available and the exit option which closes the Disk Cleaner utility. In other words, there’s no way to continue what so ever and you’ve just been left facing a blank wall. A big turnoff for a system utility with fairly good registry cleaning capability but with a non-functioning disk cleaner.

Ease of Installation [5/5]

Installation of this software is fairly simple and self-explanatory. No advanced technical knowledge is required and usually takes a minute to install. Installation file is a Windows executable application (EXE) with size of about 1.7Mb

Help/Support [4/5]

AMUST Registry Cleaner comes with a documentation manual which is immediately accessible from the top right part of the window. This opens up a regular help file where you can read about the many features of the software. However, the documentation pages are too short to be beneficial which usually consists of only 4 to 5 lines of texts and does not really give the readers enough information regarding the tool’s features and how each feature works. Although evaluation copy of the software does contain links on how to order and register, the software does not have any link on product inquiries or technical information. This is very important for a fact that software buyers tend to try products first then ask a lot of technical questions before purchasing. Help and contact information must be available immediately to them in order to attract potential buyers and ensure good sales turnout.

For those who are looking for their contact numbers, you can reach AMUST R&D Department by visiting their contact information page at http://www.amustsoft.com/company/contact.asp where you will find their complete company location, email address and even fax and phone numbers, a service other software companies don’t have.

Safety [5/5]

With regards to security, AMUST Registry Cleaner performs well, able to create a snapshot of the registry before each test so users can undo any changes made by the software anytime. Aside from this, it can also create full Windows registry backup which you can use to restore a good registry copy in case of corruption or accidental modifications ensuring the safety of your good registry copy.

Software Stability [4/5]

AMUST Registry Cleaner was tested and found to be stable both on low and high-end machines. Average memory usage is a bit high consuming. This may be due to the software’s interface design and how each form is structured. Scanning can be slow on some instances. At first you would think that the software runs on a multithreaded mode but in reality, it’s not. It simply updates each scanned areas status as it passes each entry giving the impression that multiple instances are scanning simultaneously.

Summary [4.3/5]

AMUST Registry Cleaner is a good product when it comes to registry error detection and correction. It also performs well in ensuring that the registry is safe by allowing users to create backup copies of their Windows registry. It has a good rollback feature that can be performed after each test. It can also safely compact the registry better than other registry tools we tested. In short words, as a registry repair and optimization tool, AMUST Registry Cleaner is really a good one.

The only major drawbacks of this registry software are the lack of documentation and a useless disk cleaning utility.

Price starts at $29.99 with $5 special discounts for singles licenses. Discounts are available for bulk orders and you can take advantage of our 20% discount on any order too.

It currently has an extensive list of registry error detection rules and best Windows registry optimization techniques than other registry repair software we reviewed so far.

Feature Set [5/5]

Probably Registry Repair’s significant edge over other registry repair tools is its ability to analyze a broad range of Windows registry errors and optimization points.
