I saw these ads for FREE registry cleaners and they all have been phony. THey scan and tell me I have anywhere from 200 to 700 errors depending on which one I used, then they say they fixed a few of them and urge me to buy the real program. I would rather they sy from the beginning that this is what they charge rther than lead one on.
So anyone know of a GOOD, REALL FREEWARE to fix registries?
Thanks for the tips all. DG and Shed – I downloaded the CCleaner – and it really was FREE and pretty fast. I even think my computer is running a bit faster – now if it stops locking up every once in a while I'm a very happy camper.

Did the CCleaner and it took oput a bunch of cookies – but fooled around with it and found a place where it took out lots of files and dlls etc etc etc that went nowhere. After I did that, I ran the MS defragger and now my computer runs about 30% faster and so far…no lock ups. Thanks!

i have searched online for free registry cleaners, but every time they say they are free, it scans my computer then when it comes to fixing it, it then ask to upgrade and stuff where i have to pay! Does anybody know of any good ones which don't?
