No matter how smart, fast and powerful your PC is when you first buy it, it will decrease in performance over time. Regardless of your computer configuration (RAM, processor, etc.), all devices become sluggish at some point, from overuse and all the clutter that builds up.
The more capable our computers, the more we put them to work, because we know they can take it. We constantly install and uninstall apps, delete, copy and move files around, without knowing how this will affect our PC’s performance over time.
Installing and uninstalling a program is not as easy as it seems, if you want to make sure you get rid of all the files in that app. Most times when we uninstall a program, we will leave traces. Junk files and entries can still be left behind in the Windows registry and over time, all this clutter will manifest itself through sluggishness, weird errors, computer crashes and an overall decreased performance.
What is utility software and what does it do?
We can’t keep installing the operating system or throw our computers away and buy new ones every time we run into problems such as those mentioned above. There is a quicker, more affordable and efficient solution to all those problems: utility software.
Utilities are maintenance and repairing programs for your computer. They analyze, monitor, fix, optimize and increase your PC’s performance. There are several types of utility software, depending on the action they perform on your device:
- Disk defragmenters
- Disk cleaners
- Disk analyzers
- Registry cleaners
- Antivirus programs
- Backup software and others
There are a lot of benefits to installing and using a third-party utility program on your computer. These programs scan your PC for potential issues, they monitor your PC, repair any broken registry entry and make sure your computer functions at full capacity.

From the Settings tab you can schedule scans, you can create an Exclusion List if there are areas you don’t want scanned and you can change the language. You can also choose whether you want the program to launch at startup or not.
Main features of the RegClean Pro
Systweak boasts on RegClean Pro being used by more than 10 million users so far. The software is especially appreciated for its registry scanner and cleaner, although it has more useful features.
The Windows registry is responsible for the way your hardware and software run on your computer, because it is what controls and manages your entire system.
RegClean Pro scans the registry to identify invalid or incorrect entries and fixes them. Here are some of the benefits of using RegClean Pro:
- It defrags the entire registry
- It fixes invalid registry entries
- It prevents system crashes and BSODs
- It improves your system’s response time
- It boost your devices’ overall performance
Before taking any action, RegClean Pro makes a backup copy of your old registry. This way, in case anything goes wrong, you can easily restore backed up registry.
RegClean Pro allows you to customize the locations you want to scan. You can manually select what you want scanned or uncheck certain areas of your system you don’t want to be scanned.
Another useful feature of RegClean Pro is the startup optimizer. The startup optimizer helps boost your PC’s performance by turning off certain apps that are preprogramed to start with your system. Having too many resource-consuming programs that start with Windows can significantly slow down your PC.
