The Wise Registry Cleaner folder does not have to be on the PC. Wise Registry Cleaner also works from a Memory-stick.

The GOTD version of Wise Registry Cleaner Pro will run semi-portably, as posted by Maria Guzman, but the regular, paid version may or may not -- the special version for GOTD does not require, *or look to see if it's activated*, while the regular version *might* store the key and a machine ID in Windows. Using a dual boot VM, I monitored the installation of the GOTD, Wise Registry Cleaner Pro, then booted into Win10 and monitored what happened when I ran Wise Registry Cleaner Pro from the Win11 drive without installing it. Installing the app added the program's folder plus a folder in Users\ [UserName]\ AppData\ Roaming\, adding one key to the registry for uninstall, and one for the app itself. Running the app without installation also added the user folder & files, along with the app's registry key -- those changes are why I call it semi-portable.

Note that while the software allows, and encourages you to make a backup of the registry before any changes are made, you can only restore that backup by running Wise Registry Cleaner Pro -- if Windows won't start you're out of luck, so it's safest to create a disk/partition image backup you know you can restore beforehand. Creating a Restore Point can also work, but it's not as reliable as an image backup.

Registry cleaners work by looking for and removing entries with broken links, including things like files that don't exist at the location listed and other registry keys that don't exist. They also might include tweaks that are known to help -- the 2nd tab in Wise Registry Cleaner Pro is devoted to that. Mileage varies using registry cleaners, with some people reporting large improvements and even fixes, while others have reported it broke software & even sometimes Windows. Some software has been around, and updated for years, which usually means that there's an awful lot of old code that's still in use. There can be references to specific registry entries somewhere in that old code, even though those entries are no longer used or have any purpose. If a registry cleaner removes them, that software could break. Registry cleaners are also not as efficient as manual editing in terms of total garbage removed, though manual editing can be Extremely Tedious. The registry for example contains Very Many keys with several sub-keys and entries, but that key's entire focus is a single file or another registry key. If that file or key doesn't exist, a registry cleaner will only remove that one line, while a manual edit would delete the entire key. The registry is a large database read into system memory that's constantly being read & written to -- if it grows too large that can effect performance. However you have to remove a huge number of entries to reduce the registry's size by a noticeable amount. Microsoft generally doesn't say anything for or against registry cleaners, focusing instead on reinstalling Windows if/when there's a problem, which today remains the most sure-fire cure for problems [at least those that are not design related]. And as a bonus it also tends to shrink the registry
