I recently purchased this registry cleaner  "RegClean Pro by Systweak". They promoted that they are a "Microsoft Gold Certified Partner". Is this true?

They did manage to lock me out once, and I had to wipe my hard drive and re-install everything. They tell me they are from "Microsoft" or "Windows". They are NOT legit and should be sued. Do not believe anything they tell you.

    And let me add to that:
    Registry cleaning programs are all snake oil. Cleaning of the
    registry isn't needed and is dangerous. Leave the registry alone and
    don't use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think, and
    what vendors of registry cleaning software try to convince you of,
    having unused registry entries doesn't really hurt you.

    The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner erroneously
    removing an entry you need is far greater than any potential benefit
    it may have.

    Let me point out that neither I nor anyone else who warns against the
    use of registry cleaners has ever said that they always cause
    problems. If they always caused problems, they would disappear from
    the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry
    cleaner and never had a problem with it.

    Rather, the problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it
    the substantial risk of having a problem. And since there is no
    benefit to using a registry cleaner, running that risk is a very bad
    bargain.

    I have used Systweak products for many years, and they are indeed a Microsoft GOLD certified application developer.

    Please check your facts before claiming a company is a scam or whatever, so you don't harm legitimate companies.  If of course they are a scam, I'm all for alerting everyone to that fact.

    Their software is actually good, and I used it in my business for a number of years before we sold the company.

    What exactly did the software do that was fraudulent?  Just because an antivirus etc app claims there is something wrong, does not mean it really is.  I have had numerous legitimate apps over the years get flagged as bad, when they were not bad at all.
