Use NTREGOPT.EXE.
It's safe and easy to use.
Freeware.

D. Spencer Hines said:Use NTREGOPT.EXE and CCleaner in tandem and your registry will be
clean as a hound's tooth and nicely compacted.
Bruce said:CCleaner is worthless as a registry cleaner. I tried the latest
version on a brand-new OS installation with no additional applications
installed, and certainly none installed and then uninstalled, and
CCleaner still managed to "find" over a hundred allegedly orphaned
registry entries and dozens of purportedly "suspicious" files, making
it clearly a *worthless* product, in this regard. (Not that any
registry cleaner can ever be anything but worthless, as they don't
serve any *useful* purpose, to start with.)
HeyBub said:Did you check any of the "orphaned entries?" Perhaps the OS installation was
the culprit...
D. Spencer Hines said:Nonsense...
CCleaner is an:
Excellent...
Safe...
Registry Cleaner.
I've been using it for several years now with good results.

I approve every single registry change that is made.
If I don't approve it, no change is made.
Perfectly safe.

Good software has checks and balances built in -- with full input by the
user.
CCleaner does an excellent job of cleaning the registry -- and
incorporating user input -- just as a good physician or attorney does.
