Clean Start up Registry
A clean start up registry can set you up for a long time of good and efficient computer performance. Start up registries are special in that they offer you the chance to customize the registry directly by way of editing and changing its items to match your specifications.
A clean start up registry will enable your computer to possess remarkable booting speeds thus speeding up the computer’s start up process as well. This can best be done by pruning the files on your computer and especially the start up folder to leave only relevant files that will enable it run smoothly. In allowing the start up folder to load only specific programs that are needed at start up the registry can run without carrying much weight.
This pruning can be done easily by choosing from the ‘options’ feature provided in most programs and setting the specific program to be loaded at a later time. The best way to ensure that as you shift settings and alter the course of processes no data is lost, is to adopt a prudent back up system.

The clean up should also be guided not to take out computer protection software and programs from the start up, as an initial systems check for threats may just save you from buying a new computer. The good news is that modern machines work on technologies that provide inbuilt back up facilities to the start up registry which can be used to great success.
Another guide ensuring a clean start up registry is to weed out programs and assigning them shortcuts in other locations where they can be easily accessed. This can most apply to programs that are on the start up but are still of some significance when it comes expediency in execution.
A misconception that may arise from deleting items from the start up folder is that by deleting the icons which represent programs you would actually be deleting the actual program from the computer all together. Rest assured this is not the case. Deleting program icons just relegates the respective programs to the background where they can be reached and shortcuts created for in other areas like the desktop.
As a precautionary measure you may want to send these unwanted icons to the recycle bin and not delete them from there until you are satisfied that their absence has no adverse effects on the functioning of your system. Information on how to go about cleaning up your start up registry can be found on the user instructional manuals that accompany the computer during purchase.
