It contains settings for low-level operating system components and for applications running on the platform that have opted to use the registry. The kernel, device drivers, services, SAM, user interface and third party applications can all make use of the registry. The registry also provides a means to access counters for profiling system performance. The Windows Registry has a structure similar to Windows folders and files. Each main folder is named as a Hive. Do you know what does each hive mean? In this article, you will read the general introduction to Windows registry hives.

 COM (Component Object Model) is Microsoft’s component software architecture developed primarily for Windows. It is the foundation upon which OLE and ActiveX are based, and provides a means to re-use code without requiring re-compilation. In COM, a component is a platform-specific binary file that compliant applications and other components can utilize. Programs incorporating a component’s services never have access to its internal data structure, but instead include pointers to its standardized interface. Thus, it is possible for components to interact with each other regardless of how they work or what language they are written in. ActiveX, OLE/COM produces many registry problems on Windows system.

registry-activex

Application Paths are used for storing keys and values of Windows applications. If some application ceases to work on your Windows, you can clean and optimize this registry hive to fix the application problem.

registry-app-path

Empty Registry keys are when a program of software has made a ‘folder’ and either never filled it with contents or has been uninstalled and the ‘folder’ remains but has no contents. They are harmless. Just take up a little space. It might also slow down certain processes if there are too many empty and useless keys. No matter what registry cleanup tool you are using, empty registry keys will certainly be removed in registry cleaning.

AthTek Registry Cleaner is the best registry cleanup tool for Windows user. It can not only fast clean the complete registry in minutes, but also repair registry errors and optimize registry for better user experience. As you maybe know, every time you start the Windows or any application on your computer, redundancy registry items will be created instantly. If you don’t clean that rubbish frequently, the registry will grow up and slow down your system’s speed. Sometimes the registry was destroyed by virus or accident. If your registry has been destroyed, applications cannot run on your computer and you will meet blue screen  frequently. That’s why Windows users need to clean up the registry regularly rather than scan for virus.

There are a lot of registry cleaners, including free registry cleaners. But what I want to let you know, most of the registry cleaners can only find very limited redundancy registry items on the computer, rather than fatal registry errors. What you need is a comprehensive registry cleaner which can clean up the complete registry, repair and optimize registry for better user experience. This is exact what AthTek Registry Cleaner can do.

I will recommend you to test those registry cleaners yourself, including the free registry cleaners. You will find that if you scan the registry errors with a common registry cleaner, you maybe can scan out hundreds of errors. But if you scan the registry errors with AthTek Registry Cleaner, you probably can find thousands of registry errors! That is what I mean “the complete registry”.

The special offer of AthTek Registry Cleaner will expire on September 30. We only provide 99 opportunities in this special offer. If you are looking for the best registry cleaner, AthTek Registry Cleaner is exact the one you should never miss!
