I've seen many freeware Registry Cleaners, Optimizers, & Tweakers
posted here. Yet, i have NOT seen a definitive argument that clears-up
the issue that "registry cleaning & user manipulation is a safe &
necessary evil". Oh, i've read some basic registry cleaning discussions
but nothing, debated or concluded.
I've tried most of these freeware registry cleaner type programs &
have experience some kind of negative results in all that i've used.
Example:
After using the Reg.Cleaner type tool, usually something necessary
becomes missing, so that Program, i want to use, will NOT load &/or run
correctly (without errors).
It seems without a lot of O.S. computer knowledge, it's nearly
impossible to use a Reg Cleaner safely. They are almost dangerous to
use (in my opinion).
So the big Questions are :
How do you use these things correctly or are they all to dangerous to
use?
Do they fragment or chop-out important registry value entries?
Would you be better-off not using them?
BTW- I run the Win_98SE OS.
Can this (freeware) reg cleaner use issue be explored & discussed enough
where it is possible to prove the facts, either way?
Hopefully, someone in this ng. can prove what's necessary & what's safe
& what's not.
I hope this is not considered to be OT.
