I agree that Ccleaner is a good option but was told by my computer programer not to use it. The registry is a vital part of the system and if something is removed that should not be you can ruin you computer but Ccleaner can back up the registry and if you absolutly need to clean the registry use it or Advanced windows care. I dont know where to get it though.

I use Reg Cure and it keeps my Registry clean and organized, it costs about 30.00 for the license but its worth it, another way to fix your registry is to do a fresh installation of your OS, re_install apps,drivers etc. but make sure you back up important media: pics, music, docs, etc….but this is very time consuming.
