Hi Richard,

Thanks for the Test Result

Consider this then!

I performed a clean install a month ago, just to test this theory.

Clean install. Added SP1 and all available Window Updates. Installed all
my
programs (had a lot of time on my hands). Then I installed SP2.

I ran WinDoctor and eliminated about 600 bad entries in the registry. I
rebooted and emptied the recycle bin.

I then ran NTREGopt.exe ( from ERUNT). This optimized (compacted) the
registry. I obtained a 19% gain in the reduction of the registry size
(about
8.5 meg smaller).

When I rebooted I was able to "CLOCK" - via a stop watch, a 23 second
reduction in bootup time to a usable desktop!

Do you really think so?

Consider this:

How many megabytes of memory does, say, one thousand redundant registry
keys
occupy? How much RAM do you have installed? How fast is your hardware?

You accomplish nothing measurable (let alone perceptable) by eliminating
those thousand registry keys, but you risk crippling your system with a
so-called registry cleaner toy.

If you're interested in speeding up your system in a way that you can
actually notice, and you're already diligent about maintaining your
computer, buy more RAM, a faster hard disk or a faster video card.

Hi Ted,

Doeas Registry Gets Load while the Windows Load? If yes Then that
should
affect the System Performance if the Size grows due to Unwanted Values
in
it.

Thanks

Wesley is correct, of course.

The proper way to deal with the registry is to leave it alone, unless
you
need to fix a specific problem that can only be repaired by editing
the
registry.

Redundant registry entries cause no harm to your computer and do not
affect
its performance.

No. XP does not do this.

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Do I understand correctly, that XP removes redundant registry
entries
left behind when programmes are un-installed.

Hi All,

I have XP + SP1. I use Microsoft OLD RegClean.

Is this the Best Registry Cleaner Available? Or If not which one
I
should Go
For my XP System?

Thanks
