Just released version 5.2. I also notice that they've changed the free trial
functionality, now instead of having full use for one month they've changed
it to only fix the first 6 sections of the reg file :-(


Why is 'registered' better than the trial version?
The Registry Mechanic free evaluation trial is designed to detect the types
of unwanted errors you may have on your computer. This will allow you to
fairly evaluate whether or not you believe Registry Mechanic would be of
benefit to you. As it is a trial it has limited functionality, in the
instance of Registry Mechanic it will only repair the first six (6) sections
scanned.

Once purchased, Registry Mechanic comes with a 12 month subscription service
which includes any Registry Mechanic software upgrades and full support from
our Technical Support Team.

When you are a registered customer of PC Tools, your version of Registry
Mechanic will offer the following full benefits:
