Registry Mechanic won't work! 
2007-09-11
I purchased Registry Mechanic, had problems, purchased it again and had troubles. Then for a third time I purchased it again hoping the new CD would work. It just kept locking up my new Dell system. (I'm running out of money buying and rebuying it) I cannot even load the program to contact them and complain about their junk!
Buy this at your peril! Don't say you haven't been warned.
BTW, the absolute best Registry cleaners are: 1. CCleaner and 2)RegSupreme. Forget all the rest!!
Cleans the system 
2007-08-07
After installing Registry Mechanic cleared at least 300 problems. My computer now runs faster and more effectively. Now when I run registry mechanic I may find 1 error that it promptly fixes.
The worst support service in the industry 2007-08-02
If I could give this company a 0 star rating I would. They are in Australia which means they take days and days to answer questions and when they do answer they simply do not hear a word you say (yeah, I found an 800-number) or write. Horrible! And the product is impossible to install. Even new out of the box with the correct activtion number, it doesn't work. I had to have it installed from Australia, for heaven's sake. FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO BUY.
Registry Mechanic 5.x PC 
2007-05-30
I don't like to give a 5 star rating until I've use a product for a year or more. I have had this for a couple of months, and so far, so good. Once you configure it to not come up at every startup, it appears to do a very good job of cleaning.
Not As good as Registry First Aid or Norton System Doctor 
2007-04-25
I regularly use Registry First Aid Platinum, Norton System Doctor and Registry Mechanic. I have tried all the combinations and by far, Registry First Aid (and Norton System Doctor) out performs Registry Mechanic.
Registry First aid even detects the registry entry made when an "unsaved" e-mail attachment has been opened.
As a matter of fact, I have learned a great deal about the Windows registry from running Registry First Aid. You would be surprised at the pervasiveness of the registry.
I would rate Registry First Aid as the best, Norton System Doctor (actually it is quite good!) as second followed by Registry Mechanic.

Registry Mechanic is bad/deceptive-doesn't rid all/auto-renew,,, 2007-03-26
I am a software tech. I first "free trial" V6 online-
1. Finds 131 errors, but will only fix 4 (must buy full version!). SHEESH!
2. Buy full version with 20% off coupon (3 computer lic, for only $9.95 more- their web site).
3. Does NOT remove left/overs..., from old uninstalled pgms. (Fix-it Utilities "6" safely did- read my review).
4. Then they only support updates... for 1 year- auto-renew! RIP-OFF!
I got a refund, and will NEVER use them again!
Good but outdated since at least November 8, 2006 2007-03-14
This is an excellent registry cleaner however this version is out of date since at least November 8, 2006. Registry Mechanic 6.0 is the new version. Also you cannot buy this one and upgrade to 6.0 for free. Bottom line is that this software is outdated by over 4 months as of today. Yet Amazon continues to sell it, why? They don't even offer the new 6.0 version!

NOT A RESOURCE HOG
Great Registry Tool 2007-03-09
Registry mechanic is a great registry tool. It works better than the registry tools included with Symantec System Works. If you purchase this version at 5.1 you can get a free upgrade to the latest version 6.0 once you register the product. Try the evaluation and you will see how many registry errors your machine may have that can effect its performance.
