I noticed when I was browsing through my registry that a lot of entries in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT have multiple entries, example:
Shell.Explorer
Shell.Explorer.1
Shell.Explorer.2
They all have a CLSID entry and sometimes the entries point to the same
CLSID, one of the entries also has a CurVer entry.
I have f.i. 3 Shell.Explorer entries (like above list) with the first one
having a CurVer that points to the third (Shell.Eplorer.2).
My question: Can I remove the .1 .2 etc. entries and keep the first one (by
replacing its CLSID entry to be identical to the one pointed to in The
CurVer entry, thus cleaning up redundant data and make my registry
smaller/faster?
