Registry Questions
7 O/S. (1) I understand that an overloaded Registry can considerably slow down a computer's operation. I have accessed the Registry and see that all of the keys have a listing referring to Software. Is it generally considered that everything that is seen under the Software heading is the result of a program, at one time or another, being downloaded into Programs? (2) I have read too, that when Programs are uninstalled the process may not entirely remove the program and leave residual in the Registry. (3) If the residual that is left in the Registry is not attached to any existing Programs, can it be deleted without affecting operations of the computer? Thank You for any help.
