PC Tools Registry Mechanic 2011 Review

May 8, 2011 - PRLog -- There are few reasons why PC Tools Registry Mechanic remains to be the top registry cleaner software - simply powerful and effective. You can easily mantain your operating system with Registry Mechanic.

Interface

When I first installed Registry Mechanic 2011, I was a bit confused of the differences between "Start Scan" button and "Clean your Registry", as well as "Tuneup your Services" and "Optimized your System". However, you will be familiar of all these functions after you use it for a few times. There is also a back and forward button for you to navigate easily.

New features

- Protects Internet privacy and personal information.
- Securely deletes files from your PC.
- Bleaches free space and deleted files using Department of Defense standard (DoD  5220.22-M) making the data unrecoverable using regular file recovery methods.
- Plug-ins clean the history of 100+ third-party programs, including chat, image viewers, P2P applications and more.
- Scheduler allows you to set and forget, optimizing your system for optimal performance and protecting your privacy online.

Optimize Tab

All main features are displayed under this tab. The quick scan option has been removed in Registry Mechanic 2011 and a deep scan is performed when you click on the "Scan" button. Surprisingly, the deep scan takes merely 2 minutes to clean and fix windows registry. However, you need to close your web browser(s) during the scanning process.

"Clean your registry" performs similar function to the scan button. Scanning is carried out to detect registry errors in your operating system.

Registry Mechanic is able to detect registry errors effectively. Once you click on the repair button, it will automatically fix all errors that slow down your pc performance.

Registry defragger and Sevices tuneup optimizes Windows boot services to improve boot time and system performance. The optimization button allows you to kill process that you want and automatically tweaks your Windows to optimize pc's performance.

Next, "Clean your Disks" works much like a disk cleanup to clean your computer and internet traces. Lastly, there is a file shredder to delete files safely.

Maintain Tab

Health report provides you an overview of your system's health, with high, medium and low rating. System monitor records all of your system optimization history and compare your system performance after optimization.

Besides, it automatically creates a backup after each repair and you can restore your system to undo repairs using the restore function in this tab.

Options & Help Center Tab

Options Tab allows you to customize your setting, scans, white lists and other features. In Help Center Tab, Registry Mechanic gathers some useful Windows default tools such as control panel, device manager, system restore, disk management etc.

Conclusion

A very powerful registry cleaner that does everything to clean, repair and optimize your Windows registry. Apart from that, Registry Mechanic 2011 too includes additional tools such as tuneup and Windows tweaks. However, the interface isn't that easy to understand at the beginning with its features cluttered in different tabs. Registry Mechanic still remains to be one of the best registry cleaner tool out there.
