Event Viewer error

[Ken A]

Today I checked my Event Viewer and found 4 different Warnings. One for
today and the other three were different days. The warnings were all the
same. They are:
(I did delete ((just in this message)) the numers after Ken-xxxxxxxx as I am
not sure what they were and if it could be a security problem to print them
out here. You can tell I am not the knowable on this subject. I would
appreciate Any input and help on these errors.)
Type Source Event User
Warning Usernv 1517 System

When I clicked on the warning I get the error message:
Windows saved user KEN-deleted these numbers\Joe registry while an
application or service was still using the registry during log off. The
memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be
unloaded when it is no longer in use. This is often caused by services
running as a user account, try configuring the services to run in either the
LocalService or NetworkService account.

Download/install the Microsoft Add-on Service called "User Hive
Profile Cleanup". It helps/resolves issues with the ones in your log.
Download here:

Clear logs and do a complete Restart (X2) and then re-visit the logs
to check if the issue is fixed.

Thank you R. McCarty!! I followed your instructions and looks like my
problem it fixed. I have rebooted 3 times and then checked my event viewer
and no longer get any warnings. Now that the probem is resolved do I leave
User Profile Hive Cleanup Service installed?
Thank you again for your help and advice.

Yes it's a persistent service that needs to remain on the computer.
It only consumes 15 Megabytes or RAM and has almost no impact
on overall performance.
