...to Registry Scan.

Clicking the Start Scan Button in the System Overview Screen will immediately start the scanning engine of Registry Booster.

The Registry Scan Screen allows you to select which items within the Windows Registry to scan.  To configure settings, you should tick the check boxes.  By default, Registry Booster performs complete scans - note the checkbox next to Complete Registry Scan is ticked - .

The Progress Screen will show you how many errors Registry Booster has found in each area of the Windows Registry.  Errors are marked with while areas that are clear of errors are marked .
