Popular software developer PC Tools' foray into registry repair, Registry Mechanic, purports to be the world's most popular registry repair software. Whether that's true or not, it is certainly one of the most diligent. It detects both invalid and missing entries from your Windows registry. It improves overall system performance by compacting the wide gaps, repairing invalid entries, and removing orphaned entries. It scours every kilobyte of your registry for shell extension, Com/Activex, sound and application events, application path keys /Orphan references, shared folders, obsolete Start Menu item, lingering remnants of installed software, uninstall information for proper program removal, and invalid Shortcuts, fonts, paths, file types/extensions/entries, class keys, Help files, CLSID/ Typelib/Interface entries, and shared/known DLLs.
