Thanks Jack D for your comments...

Can you tell me if you had any spyware software installed or were you just relying on regcure to fix your PC.

Thanks Dwrigh62

Good to hear some honest comments. I have used regcure for a while and never had a problem. I run a custom built desktop not a name brand and also two toshiba laptops all of which have never had a problem after using regcure.

What I am starting to understand though is many of the brand name desktops seem to have alot of problems with regcure. Maybe it has something to do with there custom installs I am not sure as yet.

I keep getting blue screen - stop errors at random times, and I am considering buying regcure. I did the free download and it found 922 problems. Do you know if regcure will solve my problem? How much is it to buy regcure?

Hi Bobbey I have just been reading your comments about regcure damaging your hardware. i find it very strange that a piece of software can damage your hardware the only code i know of that can do this is usually a very bad virus. So maybe you had some form of virus on your pc and it wasn't the fault of regcure.

I did not have expectations above what this product claims it can do, wich it did not. This product actually damaged macromedia & autodesk software that was running fine. I also had problems with Office 2003..... Tech support was not upfront about known issues with macromedia products and blamed macromedia for the problem. Supports suggestions are always to undo the fixes this software preforms... Then what am I paying for??? If you have problems they blame you, don't expect to get your money back.

i installed regcure on my computer that i built from scratch about two months ago. i ran the scan and it found about 26000 errors! like an idiot i thought that it knew what it was doing so i fixed the errors! today i fired up my computer and vista could not find my desktop file and i was unable to do anything on it. i hope i am able to restore to a point before i installed and easily fix the problem! it sounds like i'll have more trouble than i am hoping for!

I have been building advanced PC's (and installing the most advanced software available since 1986). I had Windows 1.1 and AutoCAD 7 working on the same platform back when Industry leaders said it couldn't be done. We're talking back in the days of 286's/386's with 20MG hard drives, Cyrix Math Co-processors, and custom (full case length) Graphics Cards with 1 MG of memory ($3,500) in order to run AutoCAD. I have always had "state of the art" systems usually ones that I had to custom build and (by-the-way) I too have been generating a living online since 1995 (over $10M/year). Bottom line: you know when your machine is working right! I mean when it works like a "swiss clock"... and you know (like ANY controlled scientific experiment) when you change only ONE variable and "it all goes to hell in a handbag"... you don't have to be a guru to figure it out! Let's see... worked great BEFORE I ran RegCure.. "screwed" AFTER I ran RegCure! WOW .. was I trying to rely on RegCure to solve too many problems? NOT!!!!

"Tampering" with Windows System Registry files has long been the cause of many a blue (or black) screen! However, in this day and age, we have come to have a slightly more hopeful outlook toward indentifying and cleaning up possible "clutter" within the System Registry in order to not necessarily "Fix" a problem but just as we would change the oil in our cars to avoid the cummulative effect "down the road" from too much unecessary "crap". Problem is.... some programs can easily go TOO FAR! RegCure obviously removes too many items (some of which are necessary for a smooth running machine) and can render third party software inoperable as well as possibly remove critical system files "components" or commands. Besides, it is questionable how you can run say PC Tools Registry Mechanic immediately before... identify 12 problems... then run RegCure and identify 178 problems! Maybe they're NOT really "problems".... UNTIL you remove them!!!!! Food for thought...... I uninstalled it... For Good!

Reg cure crashed my PC and made it impossible to open WINDOWS. Their "customer support" doesn't even answer my e-mails!

Computer skills are probably average or little below. Bought this program trying to improve things after several spyware and virus scans said nothing was found and computer still running slow, and knew I had NO business messing w/ the registery. After running this I am getting print spooler errors and several different script and dll library errors computer keeps freezing up and suddenly shutting down. All MS restore points prior to installing Reg Cure disappeared. I tried using Reg Cure undo and that made it all even worse.

I never expected this program to fix every program on my PC but I did expect it to clean my registry of unwanted junk. Instead it removed necessary files. I had to reinstall my OS. RegCure is junk!!!

Hello everyone:

After reading most of the comments about regcure (mostly very unfavorable) I am glad that I have not installed it. But some of the free programs out there are very good. One of them is called BAKU and it did a very good job in finding my registry errors as well as the unneeded files cluttering my system. I think BAKU is one of the best and you should give it a try.

Thanks guys.

No piece of software can fix all problems, regcure and other registry "fixers" only scan the registry for entries that are either not needed or are damaging. This means that if you already have some bad bugs on your system, 90% of people do and don't know it, that have already done damage to your system like deleting needed files, damaging hardware, breaking software, etc. regcure will take out the registry entries that were messed up by these circumstances causing your system to go nuts. It is not regcure's fault, it is just a simple fact that you may not actually see some of the problems until regcure cleans up your registry, the problems would have presented themselves anyway and probably with more damage to your system. It's better to find problems early on. I have learned the hard way, just because your virus/spyware scanners say your system is clean, it may not be true. I have tried all of the top programs and have found that all of them except Zone Alarm Security Suite does not catch the new viruses fast enough to keep from doing your system in. This goes doubly for norton and mcaffee, both of those missed viruses that some of the free programs were catching and yes they were updated to the latest definitions. The free AVG that everybody trusts so much missed some too as did Avast. I have used registry cleaners for a long time, including regcure, and have never had any problems with any of them on any of my computers and I'm currently running 5 online with a few different opperating systems, again they can only do what they are designed to do. I know for a fact my system is clean of any malware before I run a registry cleaner and it doesn't take out any files I need which causes no problems. If you don't know exactly what you are doing when it comes to repairing your system, you should probably take it to a qualified techy person. Make sure your system is clean and make sure regcure is setup the way you need it and don't mess with the registry if you aren't 100% sure what you are doing. Again I have been using these type of programs on my 5 computers for years and my systems are running as good or better than ever. No probs with regcure here so there must be some other probs with your systems. Just mi2centz

I have downloaded the RegCure on Friday afternoon. I had (still have?) problem with nv4-disp.dll and reviews recommended RegCure. I ran the 'free' package. It discovered 2240 problems(how come that my box is still running?) and when I asked it to clean up, software 'replied' that it will clean only two groups out of some 8 found, excluding registry problems, etc., unless I 'register'. I tried to register and look! Here it is! No free anymore! Shell out 30 bucks or take a hike. So I shelled out. 3rd party payment company said I should get my license key in the mail. Why didn't I believe when it also said 'within 48 hours'? It wasn't late yet and the software outfit is in Victoria, BC so ther should not have been a problem to e-mail the key even if it wasn't automated. I minimized the screen requiring the license key and peened my e-mail every now and than to get my key. Nothing. So I wrote e-mail asking for it in impatiently. Nothing on Saturday, Sunday. Monday around 9:30 I was really anoyed and looked for a phone contact. Guess what, none, no matter how hard I looked. I googled the company (ParetoLogic Inc.) and got two numbers. No response on either one, just a prompt to leave message. I noted that it appeared like the same guy recorded message on both numbers. I left an angry message on one number pointing out that the delay is ridiculous, that software company should know how to automate this license key mailing after receiving payment. Just when I started recording the same angry message on the second phone, the e-mail with key arrived. I re-run the software (with a different number of errors found - how come?). Plugged in the key and whoosh, all 'errors' disappeared. Finally. I started to work again and guess what. My Inventor comes back with a message that it cannot open. I went to 'repair' it and it took 20 minutes to replace corrupt files from CD1 and from library disk 2. Now Inventor runs. But it gives me a warning that it uses non-approved display driver. So I will have to go again through the re-installation of the driver that is approved. Ok, I can work now. Now I need to paste something ito my Word. Oops, there is an error that needs to be fixed. It would almost open and through a several more error windows refering to macro activation permit being not present (even in new document) it quits. OK, I help myslef with Wordpad, unfortunately all the graphic features that I use Word for are not there. But it runs. Than I need to check some of my hand calcs in Excel - guess what. It has some sort error that needs to be fixed. The same window as poped up during the Word boot. Luckily, Excel loads and I can run my check and even save my file (!). All programs were fine until I have run the RegCure. I just can't wait what is going to crash on me next. I use myriads of software, FEMAP, Ansys, SolidWorks, Catia, if I have to re-install all of this as I had Inventor and will have to Office, I am in for a deal. And imagine, all of this for mere 30 Dollars! What a bargain. On top of this, I did not buy the software, just a license, that is going to expire in one year.... I hope my article will help someone to be aware. I do not know where the good reviews are coming from, maybe the sole one-man owner (my guess) of this piece of crap is spending time raving about it on all the review sites to create image that the software is good. I do not know but it certainly does look that way to me. Truly yours.

I Rented RegCure for my home computer in December of 2007. After four months with no problems, I rented a second copy for my laptop. After one month with no problems, I turned on my laptop and started RegCure. I received a message that said I had loaded RegCure too many times and I had to renew my license. I wrote an email to RegCure and was informed by their Tech Department that this was an antipiracy feature of the program. After one week of sending emails back and forth I was told to reload the program. When I turned on my laptop, RegCure was fixed. I am not sure what happened but I only loaded the program once. The thing is, when you give the company money for this program, you are not purchasing it, you are Renting it. After one year from the install date, you WILL have to give them more money to keep it running for another year. I read a lot of reviews on this program before I rented it and not one of the many reviews addressed this issue. When I wrote them asking for clarification I received the following reply. “As with most licensed products, there is a limited time of activation as per the license agreement. Our license keys are generally valid for one year. The year includes full use of the program, free support, program updates, and database updates if applicable. At the end of the year the option to renew will be presented, however, it is entirely voluntary.” Voluntary? If you don’t renew the license, the program will not work period. That, in my opinion, is extorsion.

Wow, what a great discussion on Regcure.

I did purchase the software recently for the purpose of reviewing it for my website readers. I did a little <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khy2usUZRho"&g review</a> video here. Some of your hub readers might find it helpful :)

All the best,

Dear Tyler (Regcure),I had a problem (could not print or load printer drivers) - error codes (1068) indicated that spooler printer was not starting on my PC. From your web site it was specific that this problem could be solved using Regcure. It was implied that if customer was dissatisfied a refund would be made without question. I ran the program and it said my computer had over a hundred errors. It then asked if I wanted Regcure to fix these errors. I replied yes and it said it fixed these 100+ errors, but it did not fix my problem Still unable to use my printer. Who could I talk to at Regcure to solve my problem? Nobody - no phone number to call! It took less than five minutes for you take my money and now you want time (up to 60 days) to work on my problem. I am very disappointed with your company and you if you personally agree with this policy. I uninstalled Recure. For your information, the next day I called HP support and talked with a technician and after a lengthy conversation he was able to solve my printer problem. He did not recommend Regcure. (Regcure has no personal support). You state that you would like to do everything you can to satisfy me - if you want to do this, then expedite my refund immediately. I do not need any Regcure programs.Ed Salter

How do i get a refund? Its going on 4 days since i bought the Regcure download. I paid $39.90 for nothing. And i mean NOTHING. It said that it was suppose to email me my license key code so i can use Regcure. All that was emailed was my receipt number. There was no customer number to call. The money was taken out of my account by safecart. The only way to contact anyone is by email. It says to give 48 hours for a response. I emailed several times in the past 4 days and still have no answers. I dont have the license key that i paid for and i cant get anyone to answer emails about a refund. This cant be legal. You might as well say they stole money out of my bank account!! I dont see Regcure sticking around for very long!!! What comes around goes around. The word is getting out on what a scam it is so not to many people are going to keep it in buisness. Im pretty sure i will NEVER see my license number OR get my money back. Thanks Regcure for ripping me off!!!!!

Regcure is pretty good, but you still have to use it with care.

To be fair, that applies to any registry cleaner and not just "Regcure".

For example, "Regcure" and "Advanced System Cleaner" (another good registry cleaner) both corrupted the "Scan to" program options in my HP software in exactly the same way - those options ended up as an annoying blank area after scanning with either of those programs.

Luckily a registry back up returned them to normal.

I'll just have to identify which registry key or keys are removed to prevent this from happening again.

It hasn't put me off because the above registry cleaners do help to clean up my system and they don't often make mistakes, but they are not perfect - so be careful.

Well i gotta say that i kinda got scared after reading some posts here, most of them were negative so i decided to restart my computer just to check and nothing happened everything was fine. I dont know if it was because i had restored the backup before doing it but everything is fine all my programs work i have internet access, etc. I have uninstalled the program tho i dont wanna take any risks.

my cpu worked fine before regcure. the first day after i installed regcure i was plagued by endless pop ups everytime i accessed the internet. regcure installed adware on my cpu and they will not give me a refund. they say that the adware must have been on my cpu before i installed regcure.

I think that most of these idiots saying regcure damaged their PC's are just from another registry cleaning program company. All of their comments are just a bunch of bullshit. I have had regcure on my pc for over a year and all it does is run well and always cleans up my registry, I think these people need to stop looking at porn so much I would imagine that is why they kepp on getting"VIRUSES" because it is not regcure causing the problems. These are a bunch of spam fake comments.

I bought Reg Cure $ 29.95, it worked for a few days then, I couldn't sign into my wireless provided stating, 'page not available'. So I tried to go under internet options to fix the connection problem and it didn't work. Therefore, I was able to Restore to a previous point, and get rid of that mess. Beware of this product.

Hi Bobby and Patrice

Before we totally condem Regcure can you guys answer a few questions about what you have installed on your computer.

Such as Do you have a firewall installed besides the free windows version.

Are you using any software to detect and remove adware and spyware programs.

Yes Regcure can be harsh on your system that is why with any registry cleaning program you need to backup your system first.

You also need to understand that all Regcure will do is try and fix your Registry if you are infected with a virus or some malicious spyware application this could be the cause of your problems as Regcure is trying to fix a file that is infected which then can possibly corrupt your system even further.

Patrice I dont believe Regcure will remove to many files from your system on the trial version as with other registry cleaners so I am a bit amazed at the damage that was caused.

Hi Jennette

This is the program i am using, it is called Registry Mechanic and it works very well with no errors at all. I have it on auto start so I have just set it and never go back to it and it just scans my PC for me and even updates itself.

This program is installed on 3 different laptops as well as my main pc which is a dell.

I bought Regcure to help fix a problem with one software that was giving a error. The error pointed to the registry. I bought and ran Regcure, but it dd not solve to the problem but added to it. Each time Regcure is run, it adds serveral network connections to the 2 I already have or shall I say duplicate one of the two several times. (about 12). I go through and deletel these each time. Plus it didn't slove the registry error I have with a program I have. You mention about third party programs conflicting with the programs, yet I turn each one off and it still does not solve my problem or stop creating network connections. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled the program I am having issues with. I have Windows XP, Norton360, and Superantispyware (which I turn off in order to run Regcure). The program that is having issues is AZZ Cardfile. Can you help or suggest another course of action?

RegCure is a fantastic program for registry cleaning, it speeds up my pc performance without wrecking a single thing. Of course you need to know that RegCure doesn't repair everything in your computer, it specializes in Registry only. Partner RegCure along with other programs that removes junk file, registry defrag and disk defrag. Your computer will run as good as new. I do not recommend all in one program suites kind of thing. Use program that specializes in certain part, for this RegCure masters registry cleaning.

People are always under the impression that this kind of software is a miracle cure, and will make a PC super fast. Far from it, if you want to speed up your PC upgrade the memory and graphics card. If your computer is having problems, use the Windows Fix from the CD (boot from CD in BIOS). Once you have done that if you still have an issue, uninstall/reinstall any software you are having problems with. If you only have a few bits of software installed playing with the registry will do little to the PC anyway, unless like me you have 5.5Million files and 100's of programs installed, then fixing the registry can make a difference, but I seldom do it, and use the free software available. If you are either lazy can can't be bothered searching for the free registry software, or don't have much clue about computers, then go ahead and buy the software, it will in certain cases halep you.

I bought RegCure. It was a complete waste of money. I could scan my hard drive 20 times a day and it would fine one error after another all in different categories each time. Also, once it scans, it immediately closes without correcting the errors. I have tried numerous times to contact their technical support and no one will follow-up. They got their money...I guess they are finished with me. Shame on RegCure. Don't purchase it !!!!!!!!
