PC Tools Registry Mechanic is a useful tool, designed to maintain your computer. When the registry has many entries from installed and uninstalled programs, Registry Mechanic 6.0 may slow your computers operating speed. Registry Mechanic 6.0 application monitors registry changes and allows your computer to perform at Registry Mechanic 6.0 is best. The program consists of three major tools: Registry scanner and fixer, System optimizer, and Registry compacter and optimizer. The Registry scanner searches for registry problems from different group categories, such as Registry integrity, Custom controls, Software locations, Windows fonts, Help and resources, Shared DLLs, Startup programs, Add/Remove Programs, Virtual devices, and temp files/shortcuts. The list can be customized and have the scanner check only your selected categories. The system optimizer tries to improve the speed of the applications. The Registry compacter helps you free space on your hard drive by compacting the registry, but in my opinion, Registry Mechanic 6.0 isnt helping much. For example, after compacting my registry I only got 3.18 Mb of extra free space, which I dont think Registry Mechanic 6.0 is something noticeable. The program allows you to create a system restore point, before repairing any problems. In case something goes wrong, you can revert to your systems former state. The scanning process is logged. You can create a list of exceptions or a list of paths to include while scanning. Pluses: The best feature is the Registry Monitor, which runs in the background (Registry Mechanic 6.0 doesnt take many resources to run) and real-time monitors changes done to the registry. Drawbacks / flaws: In conclusion: Registry Mechanic 6.0 is one great registry maintenance and optimization tool. version reviewed: 6.0.0.750
