Registry update should be understood as "cleaning" it. Over the long period of operation of your operating system of the Windows family, a large number of "unnecessary" entries accumulate in its registry. Such entries, for example, mean the traces left in the registry by a program you recently removed or someone else's flash drive that you inserted into your computer a month ago. To "clean up" unnecessary information or update the registry, special programs are mainly used.
Necessary
A computer running an operating system, a program for working with the registry, Internet access
Instructions
Step 1
Download the distribution kit of the program for working with the registry from the Internet. Install this program on a computer on which you need to do some manipulation of the registry.
Step 2
Most of these programs are paid. Some programs have a free trial period, usually a month. It is quite possible that this period will be enough for you to solve your problem. Another part of the functionality in some programs can be cut for the demo version. Basic functions and capabilities are enough for you. It should be noted that currently there are a large number of free programs for working with the registry. In most cases, their capabilities are not inferior to paid software products. When downloading, be careful and choose reliable resources so as not to pick up malicious add-ons.
Step 3
In some cases, if you have the appropriate knowledge with the registry, you can work directly from your operating system. To do this, run the regedit command in the Start menu in the Run item. You should see the "Registry Editor" window. In it, you can easily view all registry branches, delete and add the corresponding entries. It is important that if you do not have special knowledge, then it is better not to use this method. Due to your ignorance, you can disrupt the system's performance, which in most cases cannot be restored and will have to be reinstalled.
Step 4
Most of the registry programs that exist today have good intuitive interfaces. Of course, working with them requires special knowledge and training. But you can do the basic steps to clear the "unnecessary" information yourself. The help information and manuals of these programs will help you with this.
