If your computer runs slower than it normally does and is constantly freezing and crashing, there is an issue with your registry. The registry is the large database of your computer that stores files, instructions and keys needed by your machine to function. Every new file is being stored in the registry. When you use your computer often, more files are added to the registry. These files consume registry space and add up to the clutter. The many files stored in the registry cause it to corrupt.

You can get back the speed of your computer by fixing the registry on your own, but this procedure is not recommended as a slight mistake can cause a big damage to your hard drive. It is better to get a registry cleaner to fix the problem of your computer registry. With a registry cleaner, you are assured that you do not mess up anything that will damage your whole operating system.

The benefits of having a registry cleaner do the fixing are the following:

• A registry cleaner is easily down-loadable and installable. This is advantageous for people who do not know a lot about computers.
• This program has an interface that can easily be understood.
• A full scan for errors can be done in just minutes.
• The program provides a backup of the registry.
• Scheduling system scans can be done to your liking.
• Scan progress is immediately viewable.
• Customer support can be gotten 24/7.
• Windows supports most registry cleaners.

Once you are finally able to clean your registry, the damaged files that cause the slowness of your computer are eradicated and you will no longer receive weird notices like "HAL DLL is missing or corrupt." With a registry cleaner, you will also be able to save dollars as you do not have to run to a computer repair shop to have your machine fixed.
