Registry errors can also be the result of a virus or spyware infection or even if you have deleted something you shouldn't have. There are many different ways that errors can find their way to the registry but fortunately these can be detected and fixed with relative ease.

Some people insist that it's quite safe to go into the registry and find the offending registry errors and delete them which is ok if you're competent with the computer registry but many people are not and if the wrong thing is deleted by accident, your computer may not start up again.
