The problem is that many users simply log on to Google, search for ‘registry cleaner’ or “registry repair software” and follow the first link that comes up. This arbitrary type of search however could result in you downloading a registry cleaner that either does not work well or just does not work at all. This is because registry cleaners have become so popular in recent years that many scammers offer inferior programs just to earn a quick buck.
