OT Deleting a Registry Entry
i agree and i'm getting a
bit tired of that little troll. he must be brown nosing an mvp lead. perhaps, i should rescind my formal letter of concern and get that poster who was impersonating him, access again. -- db·´¯`·...¸)))º DatabaseBen, Retired Professional - Systems Analyst - Database Developer - Accountancy - Veteran of the Armed Forces "Twayne" wrote in message ... Leanard, Do you have any proof for your ridiculous assertions? Particularly the nonesense about how "erroneous data and information will lead to further corruption of the disk system [and] file system"? The assertions are not ridiculous, although your parroting certainly is, and you're becoming more and more well known for it almost daily. I noticed neither you nor your puppetmaster jumped at the chance to settle it out awhile back when I issued the challenge to do so. The larger question is how much longer you plan to confuse people with your outlandish and dangerous advice. No, the larger question is, why do *YOU* and your sockpuppet and puppetmaster continue with this ridiculous campaign? The only outlandish thing here is your lack of knowledge, attempting to misdirect conversations to simplisitic, irrelevant points so it sounds good, along with your myopic views. Oh yeah, also, QUIT SPAMMING FOR PC MAG! Your buddies will be reporting you. --- Leonard Grey Errare Humanum Est Security Tips for Everyone, from PC Magazine http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2334856,00.asp db.·.. ))) ·` .. . wrote: erroneous data and information serves no purpose other than to corrupt the integrity of a system which will lead to further corruption of the disk system, file system and registry hive system. so clearing out those outdated references is a good idea towards maintaining the integrity of your system. further, when a user does not have control over their own system to remove any data, whether it is good or bad, then the system may already corrupted in some manner. jv16 is ok, but it is not absolute because many cleaners utilize different standards and such intricate cleaners have to be kept current with the software market place. however utilizing a different reg cleaner, one that simply reconciles registry keys to the file system would have proven useful here. in this case since you would have installed flash ver 10, then the dirty registry with keys pertaining to ver 9 would have been reconciled to the flash folder on the disk and then removed. |

Almost all of his (including a couple of other frequent contributors) initial responses are meant to demean the original poster using snipes and grandiosity. These three (3) individuals must have a miserable existance; Their lonly desire to be noticed has no bounds.

Your refusing to help becuase he doesn't give a "why" answer is silly and a decision that is not yours to make. You can ask but you cannont insist or intimate your own opinion as applying to him. We all know how flawed your opinions are. Granted, you are free to do with your computer what you want.
