Free Registry Cleaner, Junk File Cleaner and Windows Optimizers for Windows 10

You are probably here because you are looking for a free registry cleaner for your Windows 10/8/7 computer. Before you proceed, you need to know a few other things. Microsoft discontinued its own registry cleaners like RegClean, RegMaid with Windows XP onwards, and also its Windows Live OneCare registry cleaner more recently. While the question, whether registry cleaners actually make a Windows PC run faster is a hotly debated question, the fact remains that registry cleaners are one of the most used Windows software.

Apart from registry cleaners, optimization suites are also very popular with Windows users. All of us want our Windows PCs to be running in top condition. While you can always use some tips to make Windows faster, many prefer to use a Registry Cleaner or a Windows optimization suite to keep their computer running smoothly.

This article will cover 10 Free Registry Cleaners and Windows Optimizers that will help you tune-up your Windows PC and keep it running smoothly.
