Review of RegSweep registry cleaner

Overall we found RegSweep to be a very stable and effective registry cleaner. If your a computer novice and looking for a product that is easy to use, prodives great support and will do a good job for you this is the product we would recommend. For people looking for a strong feature set, this isn't necessarily the product for you.

RegSweep is a well designed tool. Its very easy to use and is easily one of the most professional looking registry cleaners on the market today. RegSweep performed very high in our performance tests.

RegSweep's key points

1. Impressive results

RegSweep picked up the highest number of registry errors during our tests, although not all of them can be regarded as high risk. Unlike other registry cleaners is does not provide a risk level rating to help identify the most critical registry errors. It took just less over 4 minutes to complete its initial scan. Subsequent scans took around three minutes.

RegSweep performance results

Scan time: 4.23 mins
Registry errors discovered: 353
Speed improvement: 29%

2. Great interface design

We really liked the slick interface and ease of use that comes with this registry cleaner. The interface is broken into four key areas: scan, settings, back up and manage startup.

3. Weak feature set

• Scanner - When you hit the scan button you are instantly given a live update of how the scan is progressing as well as information on the problems that were found in different registry areas.

• Start-up manager (Manage startup) - Allows you to choose which programs are launched when the system starts up. This saves your system resources by not loading programs which you do not need at start up.

• Back-up facility (Backup)

• Update facility (Live update)

4. Excellent enhanced support available

RegSweep offer "Active protection". This provides you with real-time technical support, providing you with live technicians. if your not so technically minded we would definitely recommned adding this facility. If you got really stuck RegSweep's technical support can even log remotely into your computer and fix it for you if need be. This level of support is offered 365 days a year.

5. Money back guarantee

RegSweep offers a full 60 day money back guarantee with every purchase.
