Description from PC Utility, Inc.“ErrorFix offers users a chance to restore to their PCs to optimal performance. The software constitutes the industry's leading registry scanning and repair technology blended with an easy-to-use interface that makes the process of cleaning your Registry both elegant and efficient. Certified to run on every Windows Platform, ErrorFix can detect the corrupt paths, redundant entries, and outdated file shortcuts that can make a computer run slowly or display error messages. Even though the computing world has brought us convenience and lightening-fast results, computers themselves still aren't perfect; they slow down over time and most people think there's nothing they can do to stop it. The reason for this slowdown is the Windows Registry, a storehouse for all of a PCs internal instructions. Over time, the Registry can become weighted down with redundant entries, causing computers to become slow and suffer errors. When you install and un-install programs, the files are altered and removed, but this isn't necessarily the case with Registry entries. Usually day-to-day computing activity leaves residual data in the Registry that - over time - presents a computer with conflicting commands. The results from this redundant data can be error messages, slow performance, or other problems. Without repair, the computer may continue to degenerate. Download and use of the Eorezo adware browser extension (Browser Helper Object), as well as use of data gathered by the component, is explicitly stated in Eorezo's End User License Agreement (EULA), which is written in French only.”
