Sounds like the impossible dream? Well, I've been trying out a program that claims it does just that. It's Registry Booster by Uniblue and it sells for a modest $29.99. Does it deliver? Read on...
First I have quoted, with their permission, what Uniblue says about it. Following that I have summarized my personal experience with it. BTW, every once in awhile I get a call or a comment that a program I have written about didn't work. That's certainly a possibility as computers do tend to have a mind of their own.☺ That's why I always suggest you do a trial before you buy a program. So, with that in mind, here goes:
"Clean, repair, and optimize your system with the leading and award-winning Registry Booster from Uniblue. Residual files, unused and undeleted drivers, and corrupt or bad entries in registry settings will quickly litter even the newest of computers. The result? Frequent error messages, slow start-ups, declining and poor performance and registry integrity, unstable and frequent application errors and crashes, and, at times, even an inability to start Windows. 94% of computers have corrupt, unused, and possibly harmful files. Registry Booster is the safest and most trusted solution to clean and optimize your system, free it from registry errors and fragmented entries. Through Advanced Error Detection Technology, Registry Booster automatically identifies missing, corrupt, or invalid items in your Windows registry and dramatically enhances performance and general stability.

One mouse click and Registry Booster does the rest. And, using Registry Booster regularly keeps your PC free from errors and from obsolete, unused or unwanted files. Registry Booster is truly PC Repairs Made Easy!"

Uniblue also quotes some other reviewers comments on their web page:
THE REGISTRY BOOSTER - WHAT THE REVIEWERS HAVE TO SAY?
Overclocker's Review
"I was impressed with the simple layout and navigation of Uniblue's Registry Booster. The company came up with an original and effective solution to fixing Windows registry problems. At a price tag of around $30.00 you simple can't go wrong. I suggest you try out the free Registry Booster trial. Easy to use, effective, backs up registry values before cleaning, safe to use, runs on most common versions of windows" - Adrian Varga
Soft32.com
"It is now part of my weekly PC scan & repair routine. After the program fixed the errors and defragged the registry, my PC was back to running at full speed. I would certainly recommend this program." - JLed
All Round-PC
"The Registry Booster is a definite thumbs-up. In simple words: A tool with powerful Scanning Engine, packs in a very user-friendly and friendly-user surface" - Marcel
Warp2Search.net
"Once the initial scan is complete, you are provided with the option to backup your registry before the repairs take place. Registry Booster does all of this, and more, via a very slick interface which is both intuitive and thorough." - NVnews.net
Moditory.com
"The software outperformed the Reviewer's expectations' - The Inquirer - Desire Athow. Plain and simple: Registry Booster has outperformed our expectations. Not only does it clean-up and rearrange your registry for optimal performance, it does so very quickly. Minimal waiting time is involved here - unlike anti-virus scans. Hopefully Uniblue continues to push Registry Booster to do more by releasing patches and updates. Short processing time, fair price (the download is a better deal than the boxed version), simple to use, and noticeable improvements all come together in this software. Registry Booster is one of the best utilities of the year; it going to be a challenge to put something the Cons column. With Registry Booster in your system, your next formatting run may be further away than you think. Uniblue Registry Booster is now officially Moditory Approved and is also presented with our Editors Choice Award."
OK, so what do I think?
At the price, Uniblue's Registry Booster program is an easy-to-use program that gets the job done. Its windows are simple to use, it has a detailed help file, it does fast scans and repairs and also provides a registry defrag utility. In short, it makes registry maintenance a breeze. The features the program offers all worked well for me. I expect there are some PC users out there who say "I can do all these things, manually", but I for one am not one of them. I want a quick and easy program, and if you also are looking for a simple program to keep your PC registry optimized, without a lot of techie foreplay, Uniblue's Registry Booster is probably the program for you, too. I specially like the feature that prompts you to backup (automatically-once you check yes) before you make any changes...always a good idea whenever you do any serious maintenance on your PC and never an option where the registry is concerned.
In a nutshell, the following screen shots from Uniblue's home page will give you an idea of how RB does its job:
You'll note this last one is titled "RESTORE"... that's a real important feature, but you need to say yes to the backup option on any processes you use for it to work! That's about it for now. I would encourage you to visit www.uniblue.com and read any additional info you may want to there. You can also download a trial copy to use before you decide to buy it.
Next time, I'll tell you about another Uniblue program I have been using for quite awhile, it's called process library, and it's free! Until then, have fun with electronics and computers, but remember to be safe out there in the net world!
Aloha, Lou
