If your computer is running slow, a comprehensive registry scan may be all you need to get it running again at an optimal level.<\/p>\n
You will be able to get your PC running the way it’s supposed to in 3 easy steps:<\/p>\n
1. CHECK TO SEE IF THE REGISTRY IS REALLY THE PROBLEM<\/p>\n
Some problems are not related to the registry, so first run your anti-virus program as well as an anti-spyware program.<\/p>\n
Still have problems? Chances are, your registry is to blame.<\/p>\n
So, do this first:<\/p>\n
2. MAKE SURE YOUR REGISTRY FILES ARE BACKED UP<\/p>\n
**note: some registry cleaners will automatically backup your files<\/p>\n
Different versions of Windows require different methods of backing up files. Here are the methods to use with various Windows programs. For older versions, consider using a program like RegCure right now<\/p>\n
Registry Backup for Windows 2000\/2003\/XP:<\/p>\n
1. Click on Start, then go to All Programs, then Accessories, then System Tools- then Backup. The Backup Utility should then come up. If not, it may need to be installed from the Windows CD that came with your computer<\/p>\n
2. After backup utility comes up, check to see if you are in “Wizard” to avoid errors, and hit Next<\/p>\n
3. Select “only back up the system state data”. You will continue to hit Next until it’s finished. Then hit Finish, and the registry backup will begin. Close once it’s finished<\/p>\n
In order to restore, do the following:<\/p>\n
1. Initiate the Backup Utility<\/p>\n
2. In the Wizard mode, choose the backup version you want (most likely, it’s the one you did most recently), and click Next, then Finish, then close out this program<\/p>\n
Registry Backup for Windows Vista:<\/p>\n
1. Hit Start, then Control Panel, then System, then System Protection<\/p>\n
2. Select the hard drive that will be your restore point, then hit the Crate button<\/p>\n
3. You will then be prompted on how to complete the backup<\/p>\n
As for Restoring your Registry:<\/p>\n
1. Hit Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Restore<\/p>\n
2. Click Next, then select restore point and hit Next<\/p>\n
3. You will be prompted on how to complete restoration<\/p>\n
3. FIX YOUR REGISTRY<\/p>\n
The easiest step is to perform a system restore, but if this can’t be done, you can do one of four things:<\/p>\n
1. Re-format your hard drive and install windows once again<\/p>\n
2. Go to the registry editor to repair or get rid of the problem (the folders & keys)<\/p>\n
3. Send your computer to a shop to have it fixed<\/p>\n
4. Use a registry cleaner<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
