Hi,
You can check out Registry Mechanic from Winguides Software. If there is a better registry cleaner out there, do let me know. "Prabhat" wrote: Hi All, I have XP + SP1. I use Microsoft OLD RegClean.

Hi
The XP Registry manages itself very well. Using one of these so-called Registry 'cleaners' can cause more problems than they're worth - in some cases rendering a PC unbootable. I would suggest that you let XP manage the Registry and not use a 'cleaner'. -- Will Denny MVP - Windows Shell/User Please reply to the News Groups "Prabhat" wrote in message ...

Please read the following line:
The RegClean utility is no longer supported and has been removed from all Microsoft download sites. It itself says do not use anykind of regclean utility.

Do I understand correctly, that XP removes redundant registry entries left
behind when programmes are un-installed. "Prabhat" wrote in message ... 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 Prabhat |

Most recent Applications will remove their Registry content when they
are uninstalled. Usually, you can check in HKLM\Software and see if the uninstall left behind a Key Heading (Listed by Company name). It varies from vendor to vendor. Some Uninstallers do an excellent job of removal, and some leave pieces behind. Along with Registry keys some uninstalls will leave the Program Files folder with customization settings or values to retain if the program is re-installed at a later date.

This is also my past experience. I now use the programme "Total Install" to
install and if necessary uninstall a programme. This appears to remove all programme entries in the register when a programme is uninstalled. Derek "R. McCarty" wrote in message .net...

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. -- Ted Zieglar "Wesley Vogel" wrote in message ... No. XP does not do this. -- Hope this helps.

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.
