4. Clean & Repair

The category Clean up & Repair is responsible for slenderizing your

system.

The two tools in the category Clean up & Repair can easily be accessed

through the graphical interface.

Each program that is newly installed writes entries into the registry.

These entries are often not fully removed after deleting the software. As

a result, the registry gets larger and takes more and more memory on the

hard disk. In addition, Windows accesses the registry frequently. The

larger it is, the longer it takes to find and access the data requested. That

leads to a creeping slowdown of the system. TuneUp Utilities removes

useless entries from the registry.
