you think there might have been one on the menu?
Edward said:To answer your question as simply as possible try 'TrashReg'. No bells and
whistles but seems to be effective at what it is designed to do.
Big said:Still if you "have to have one", then I like Tune Up Utilities 2008.
Ron said:In fact, MS had a registry cleaner back in the W98 days called RegClean. It
was as destructive as any of the other cleaner products I've seen. MS
finally scrapped it.

Whether you need to 'clean' the Registry of redundant entries is another
subject and has been addressed and debated extensively.
Peter in New Zealand said:Some folk seem to think a reg cleaner is totally unnecessary, while
others appear to imply that they WILL, sooner or later, screw up the
registry. Just like to say I have used reg cleaners extensively since W95
and the original Regclean. I used Regscrubber all through W2000 and XP,
and now use CCleaner with its reg cleaning function on Vista. Over all
those years, and probably many hundreds of registry cleans, I have never
observed an improvement in performance I could definately attribute to
cleaning the registry. But I have never had a registry cleaner cause me
any identifiable problems either.
In the end YMMV, but it seems to me that either extreme view is perhaps a
little - well, extreme. However, I respectfully recognise the far greater
experience of many in this newsgroup. I just wanted to offer my own
experience, which does seem at odds a little with the more extreme views I
have seen expressed here.
Ken Blake said:Registry cleaning programs are *all* snake oil. Cleaning of the
registry isn't needed and is dangerous. Leave the registry alone and
don't use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think, and
what vendors of registry cleaning software try to convince you of,
having unused registry entries doesn't really hurt you.
The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner erroneously
removing an entry you need is far greater than any potential benefit
it may have.

Humpty Dumpty said:I just ran for an experiment RegSeeker "clean the registry". It found 569
unnecessary entries. According to your advise, I left them alone.
But I looked at the findings, and found them sensible. They are of three
types:
1) Obselete entries
2) File or path inexistent.
3) Extensions not used.
The findings are true. The Registry entries really point to garbage. And
here comes my question:
Supposing I am wise enough to delete only entries which I fully understand
and I do not do any harm to the OS, will there be any benefit, such as
greater speed, faster loading or shutting down, etc.?
TIA
