Another reason yet is something that acts like a virus and that’s a simple bug that can occur when an application relies on the registry. Here’s another good reason to clean the registry: Both myself and friends have manually removed viruses before when I do I pretty much rely on my registry cleaner to make sure that I didn’t miss any entries that might allow it to come back. In this case I was able to say for certain that a large group of entries were orphaned but, I’m not always sure and I don’t want to search through absolute garbage. This is also true if I’m meddling with the registry (which I do from time to time). The more entries Windows has to search through the slower a search will take. For one, though it may not always be perceivable, there is an effect on performance. I can’t say there are any problems stemming from registry issues but, I hate having extra items in my registry. but if asked i will always recommend “jv-16 to “get-er-done” (southern lingo) Regards Fred It annoys me to no end knowing that they are there ( sometimes thousands ) So basically… i just like to have my PC “Ship Shape” and as far as what others say or do is of no consequence to me…. and orphaned registry entries are always in my “sights” especially after having removed something substantial…. ![]() However being the “poster child” for “OCD” (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) when it comes to removing things off of my several OS’s. Hello,….I never said that i “clean the registry” because something is not working, and completely agree that it won’t make any difference in perceivable OS performance. So, your user context may not see everything in the registry that is valid for all users. As explained in one of the articles, many registry settings are “per user”. Even then you would be better off trying to figure out what the problem is and fixing it rather than a general blunt instrument approach of removing everything that may appear to be useless. Unless you specifically know that your system is not working correctly the registry cleaning is useless. This bothers me ( some mental deficiency ) so unless you want to remove them each and every one by hand (would take a lifetime) you would need to use a REGISTRY CLEANER ! Windows Explorer, Windows Mail, Windows Defender, Windows “Blah, Blah” on some of my OS’s i have ,and you know what ?… There will be “thousands” of no longer usable registry entries…. Hello… Yes they are correct ( the sites) in what they are saying for the everyday user but…… Lets say that for the moment that your like me and decide, as i have at times to remove totally from your OS the following things….(just for example) I also run Advanced System Care from time to time and once tried PCMedik (though I hated it because it didn’t show me what it was doing, didn’t improve anything, and apparently changed some of my custom settings that may at times slow me down but, usually speed me up like my index which scans Program Files (I’m always messing around with a few programs therin)). Is this a known issue/is there a program that scans for and deletes these obviously useless entries? ![]() Also as my title suggest I run CCleaner on a regular basis and I know it’s pretty good about deleting old data. A folder I deleted over a year ago (when I first installed Win7).Īs I just mentioned this is a Win7 machine though I’m going to presume that this would be an issue on most, if not all Windows Computers. I was just checking to see if there were any registry entries for a scheduled task (that I didn’t want) and found that there were tons of registry files pointing to old locations like “DownloadsTemp-Installers for this round”.
