Windows Registry Checker automatically scans the system registry for
invalid entries and empty data blocks when it is started. If invalid
registry entries are detected, Windows Registry Checker automatically
restores a previous day's backup. This is equivalent to running the scanreg /autorun command from a command prompt. If no backups
are available, Windows Registry Checker tries to make repairs to the
registry. This is equivalent to running the scanreg /fix command from a command prompt. If the registry contains more than 500 KB of
empty data blocks, Windows Registry Checker automatically optimizes it.
Every attempt has been made to ensure the information about scanregw.exe is accurate but alot of malware applications try to pose as valid applications. If it is something other than what was posted above please leave some feedback in the forum.
