Since the Windows registry is the command center of the system, software and hardware, once your computer encountered turtle-slow boot, hangs or freezes, and other frustrating problems, the registry is the first place you need to check.
How come the registry generates the issues like that? Generally, a registry entry when no longer used, after we uninstall the application disable a program, will be deleted automatically. But, some of these entries are left behind or leave holes in the registry sometimes. With the amount soaring up, the registry might end up with damages and fragments of the registry.
However, many users believe that the registry isn’t worth maintenance with dollars per month. How can you get a free Windows registry repair? Here are some useful tips to repair Windows registry for free.

Find Old Applications and Remove.
Delete any applications’ listings that have been uninstalled before.
For example:
