Professional Registry Doctor

Professional Registry Doctor is a simple-to-use program that allows you to repair registry problems and ultimately boost the performance of your computer.

If you are using Windows 7, then make sure to run Professional Registry Doctor with administrative privileges. Otherwise, several errors will pop up during runtime.

The interface of the application is clean and intuitive. Professional Registry Doctor can scan the registry for errors regarding ActiveX and COM items, application paths, file types, fonts, help and shared files, history lists, shortcuts, sounds, and others.

Once the scanning job is completed, you can check out the total number of errors, along with their name, source path and description. Professional Registry Doctor offers to create a backup before applying changes.

You can perform a registry defrag, restore backups, enable Professional Registry Doctor to automatically run at system startup and to minimize to the system tray, and others. Settings can be restored to their default values at any time.

The straightforward program requires a moderate amount of system resources, includes a comprehensive help file with snapshots for all users, quickly finishes a scan and clean task and didn't cause us any difficulties during our tests. However, the unregistered version has some harsh limitations - you cannot create an exclusion list or schedule a task and Professional Registry Doctor doesn't support multiple languages. We recommend this software with reservations.
