Registry Cleaner Pro is a Windows registry cleaner that is considered to be unreliable. Registry Cleaner Pro uses security alerts and notifications about numerous infections and privacy issues in order to lure the user into buying the full version of the program. Although it is a legitimate application, Registry Cleaner Pro is categorized as a potentially unwanted program. PC experts recommend its removal with the help of a proper anti-malware tool.

How Does Registry Cleaner Pro Affect Your PC?

Registry Cleaner Pro can be downloaded online, but it often ends up on the user’s computer via bundled downloads of freeware and shareware, such as PDF creators or download-managers. In order to avoid the installation of potentially unwanted or unsafe programs and applications, always select the “Custom” or “Advanced” installation options. This way you can see all the additional programs that come together with the one you actually want to install and simply uncheck them.

Once installed, Registry Cleaner Pro will scan your system and then display numerous alert messages and security warnings. However, the chance for these threats you’ve been warned about actually to exist on your PC is very low. The main purpose of this program is to lure you into buying the full version.

Step 2: Uninstall Registry Cleaner Pro and related software from Windows

Here is a method in few easy steps that should be able to uninstall most programs. No matter if you are using Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista or XP, those steps will get the job done. Dragging the program or its folder to the recycle bin can be a very bad decision. If you do that, bits and pieces of the program are left behind, and that can lead to unstable work of your PC, errors with the file type associations and other unpleasant activities. The proper way to get a program off your computer is to Uninstall it. To do that:

1. Hold the Windows Logo Button and "R" on your keyboard. A Pop-up window will appear.

2. In the field type in "appwiz.cpl" and press ENTER.

3. This will open a window with all the programs installed on the PC. Select the program that you want to remove, and press "Uninstall"
Follow the instructions above and you will successfully uninstall most programs.

Step 3: Clean any registries, created by Registry Cleaner Pro on your computer.

The usually targeted registries of Windows machines are the following:

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

You can access them by opening the Windows registry editor and deleting any values, created by Registry Cleaner Pro there. This can happen by following the steps underneath:

1. Open the Run Window again, type "regedit" and click OK.

2. When you open it, you can freely navigate to the Run and RunOnce keys, whose locations are shown above.

3. You can remove the value of the virus by right-clicking on it and removing it.
Tip: To find a virus-created value, you can right-click on it and click "Modify" to see which file it is set to run. If this is the virus file location, remove the value.

IMPORTANT!
Before starting "Step 4", please boot back into Normal mode, in case you are currently in Safe Mode.
This will enable you to install and use SpyHunter 5 successfully.
