Tip: To renew your subscription, you will need your existing license code for Registry Mechanic.

Your existing code can be found within Registry Mechanic by opening the program and clicking on Help> About.

The program is registered but after scanning and repairing consecutively, the same number of detected problems appear.

Please make sure you have the latest version of Registry Mechanic.

If this problem persists, it may be caused by recurring invalid entries, which can be created by the normal operation of programs (including the Windows operating system itself). For example, when a program is executed, it may create files and place entries into the Registry that reference these files. When the program is shutting down, it may remove these files from your hard drive but not the entries that reference these files from your Registry, thus creating invalid entries.

Please run a test in safe mode to determine if Registry Mechanic is working correctly:

Boot in safe mode
*When the computer starts back up, begin immediately by pressing the F8 key repeatedly until the Windows Startup menu appears with various options.
*By using the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard, select 'Safe Mode'. Do not select 'Safe Mode with networking' or any other modes.
