How to Repair the Windows XP Registry

As programs are installed and deleted, program settings are kept in the registry. Some uninstallers do not remove all traces of a program from the registry. This can cause clutter and sometimes errors. Luckily, there are plenty of free registry cleaning utilities available, such as Window Registry Repair 2.0.

Download and launch Window Registry Repair 2.0.

Click the "Options" tab.

Close all other active programs, including Internet browsers and IM clients.

Click the "Full Scan" button. This will repair the entire registry.
