Hmmm it looks like crap - reminds me of xp antivirus 2008 - fake av software. That looked legit and said it gets rid of 100s virus but that actually was a virus. I have client with slow pc and i am trying to remove this because i am sure it is the culprit. Use ccleaner - that is good.

Also, when you try to uninstall it it tries to change your pc config - vista notifies you of this - forcing you to remove manually. Malwarebytes also did not detect and remove this when i tried.

I have downloaded the re/tool software and have a hard time getting into the internet. To fix it you have to get into the INternet. I need a phone number so that I can call so that someone from this co. can help me get the best of this software. HELP!. If not I will try to remove it.

I like the features and functions of RegTool but it is totally unresponsive to navigation around the user interface. Sometimes minutes after you click a hotspot it may finally go there. Their Chat Person said I have to buy it before their texh will solve my problem.
No thanks to that.

If regtool is so bad, why is there an advertisement for it on this page?

I personally got rid of Regtool by downloading PC Tools Spyware Doctor free version.
I just deleted all the files and registry keys it told that were rogue and everything works fine now

I had the "latest" windows malware, Trojan.Win32Agent.
.I used MALWAREBYTES to remove this..
Well, it found over 980 Rogue infected files, and all of them were attached to Reg Tool. Reg Tool itself is like a virus!!

OK, NOW I'M WORRIED, I PURCHASED REG TOOL BECAUSE i HAD SOME ADD ON MY SCREEN THAT WOULD NOT GO AWAY. I RAN THE SOFTWARE WHICH DIDN'T GET RID OF THE PROBLEM BUT, ONE OF THEIR TECH DIALED INTO MY COMPUTER AND FIXED THE PROBLEM. MY COMPUTER IS RUNNING GREAT.

I tried the software and was amazed at how well it works. My 2 year old laptop now runs better than new. I have a decent background in computers and do not understand the accusations of the software being "rouge".
