Is it recommended to fix windows registry myself?
The short answer is NO for most windows users. Unless you are a real windows expert, it is strongly recommend not to go into your computer registry folder and try to change anything. The reason is very simple, if you remove or change the wrong registry key, the result can be a total system crash.
Then the only option left for you is to format your harddisk and re-install windows. And remember that all your programs and files will be lost.
Even if you are a computer geek, always make a complete system back up before you are going to spend your time on trying to fix registry errors yourself.
