PC Registry Shield

PC Registry Shield is a Potentially Unwanted Program. PC Registry Shield is marketed as a computer optimizer. However, rather than optimizing your computer, programs like PC Registry Shield may actually cause unwanted symptoms and numerous problems. Like many PUPs, PC Registry Shield is bundled with low quality software that is downloaded from low quality sources. Typical programs that are bundled with PUPs like PC Registry Shield include media players, download managers and file format converters. Due to the fact that PC Registry Shield causes a number of unwanted effects on the affected PC, malware researchers strongly recommend that computer users remove PC Registry Shield entirely with the help of a reliable anti-malware program.

As soon as PC Registry Shield is installed, PC Registry Shield runs a misleading scan of the affected computer. Regardless of the PC's state, PC Registry Shield will claim that PC Registry Shield has found numerous problems, such as outdated registry entries and unused file extensions. It is important to note that these types of symptoms do not indicate the kind of severe problem that PC Registry Shield claims is present on your computer. In fact, any supposed benefits of using PC Registry Shield to clean out your computer are outweighed by the many symptoms that PC Registry Shield causes on the affected computer. The following are common problems that have been associated with PC Registry Shield:

• PC Registry Shield may cause the affected computer to run slowly, freeze or crash frequently.
• PC Registry Shield may pester you with false positives and numerous pop-up windows and bogus error messages.

PC Registry Shield should be uninstalled at once from the affected computer. Once PC Registry Shield has been uninstalled, malware researchers recommend the use of a reliable security program to scan the affected computer and ensure that PC Registry Shield has not exposed your computer to undesirable content.
