registery repair programs

Tune-Up Utilities works fine. And the trial version is free. So you get 30 days of free registry cleaning before you have to purchase a copy. (Let the trial expire, and they'll knock a few bucks off the price.)

You can find the download link in one of my earlier posts about how to keep computers running smoothly.
 
Tune Up utilities is fine.

I have used it but didn't want to pay. Instead after using Tune Up I use Glary Utilities which doesn't require a payment for the free version.
 
I like the simple but fast registry repair and registry defrag programs imbedded in Advanced System Care (Free) by IObit, downloadable from www.cnet.com

Agreed. Or reload the old one to make the OS "new". In over 20 years of using a couple dozen, at least, registry cleaners/fixers NONE ever actually showed any performance improvement or fixed any identifiable issues despite reporting that anywhere from 1 to thousands of errors where "fixed". It is a waste of money - and probably time for the free ones (but no harm done with those). If you have problems look to spyware/virus/malware removers or a complete reload. Nothing else actually fixes the registry.

My experience also. I thought it was just me.
 
You may want to consider getting "Advanced System Optimizer". I have been using it for years and got the latest edition a couple months ago. It is the top rated software for repairing and optimizing your Windows OS. It is quite inexpensive. Here is a link that rates the software with prices etc.
