New users may be unaware, but the Windows Registry has remained unchanged for years and acts as a database of information about your PC. Every application installed on your computer, the file type associations, location of files and much more. Snag is, the more you use your computer, the larger your Registry will become, which means your system can slow and take longer to boot. Uninstall software and you may find that the information remains in your Registry which means that it can conflict with other installed software.24 Jul 2008
