You've determined that your windows registry is corrupted and not working properly. How do you fix your registry errors and get your computer running like it should?

First, perform a system restore. A computer with Windows 2000/XP/Vista should allow you to open the following utility form:

Start- All Problems- Accessories- System Tools- Backup (System Restore in Vista)

Once it's running, choose a restore point. If you are aware of the date the problems started, pick a restore point before that date, and then follow prompts.

This should fix your registry, though problems could remain. You may need to go back even further, or there might not be any restore points available if they were never created

At this point, you will need to edit the registry and get rid of the errors yourself. This article will give you instructions on this long process

If you are well-versed on windows registry and know what you are doing, open the registry & make your changes. If you don't know how to open the registry editor, STOP NOW. This could damage your personal computer permanently.

The safest and easiest way to repair the registry, even if you work in IT or you're an advanced computer user, is to use a reliable registry cleaner program like RegCure

A professional registry cleaner will do the following:

* Backup your registry
* Scan your registry for errors and isolate the faulty keys
* Safely fix the problems found
* Get your PC back to normal - even boost its performance!
