Smart Registry Care is a potentially unwanted program that computer security experts have found to be included with other downloads where computer users attempt to install freeware and random bundled software apps from the Internet. Upon installing such programs, Smart Registry Care may load automatically by default. When Smart Registry Care loads, it could then render pop-up messages or system alerts that claim to have scanned your system and detected registry issues within your Windows system. The list of issues may be both bogus and legitimate. Either way, the results rendered by Smart Registry Care are mostly enticing to novice computer users where they may believe that they must purchase Smart Registry Care to eliminate the issues at hand.

Use of Smart Registry Care is not known to be immediately harmful to any Windows computer. Though, the continued use of Smart Registry Care may lead to annoyances and questionable activities that may interrupt your ability to surf the web or utilize installed applications normally. Removal of Smart Registry Care may also be cumbersome, which leads to the recommendation of using an antimalware resource to safely eliminate Smart Registry Care and any related components that are loaded on a Windows PC.
