Solved Should I use a Registry Cleaner?

[KCav]

Running Windows 7 32-bit operating system on Gateway GT5622 desktop computer. Event Viewer reports errors 7026, 7003, and 7001. The description for these errors is misconfigured system files. Should I use a system cleaner to correct these errors?

Don't use registry cleaners!! They delete registry settings you no longer need. But they don't fix a system and they don't make your system faster! Sometimes they delete too much.... making your system unbootable or in a wrong state

7026, 7003, and 7001.... please give all info from eventlog
"device manager" gives no "other devices"? "device manager" no drivers with exclamation marks?

Sorry I gathered the information before reading your note about Elevated Command Prompt.
I logged on as Administrator and used the Snipping Tool to copy and paste information into a Word Document. I placed information on separate pages because I thought you could go through it easier that way; willing to redo if necessary. When I attached the Word document it did not upload because the file size was over the limit. If I break it into parts it will upload. So you will likely get 1 of 3, 2 of 3 ,3 of 3. Here goes.

Many of us use, and recommend, CCleaner which has a good, not too aggressive registry cleaner.

Hi Britton30,

Thanks for the advice on CCleaner. I already use it and like it. The desktop computer I'm having a problem with is one a bought for my son. He called me and said, "Dad its not working" so I have it back, I don't know what he did. It was wonderful condition when I gave it to him. One thing I would like to become more proficient at is backup and restore. Would appreciate advice; have purchased a license for Macrium Reflect. I like its features, but I have not used it extensively.

Kids generally pay no attention to what site they open or what is bundled with a software download, "That sounds neat, I'm gonna get it!" is the thoughts.

You may need to do a fresh install, install all the programs then make an image of the new setup so it will be easy to restore in the future.

Hi Britton30,

I appoligize for not replying to you sooner but I didn't notice this thread has 2 pages and I did not see all of the replies.

Thank you for the advise on how to do a new installation. I made a scan of the registry and printed the error list. It was 34 pages.

I have a license for Macriun Reflect; with help from guys on this forum I have experimented with disk preparation steps and file naming conventions for making full image backups. I have the image files stored on an external USB HD, and I'm ready to automate making Full backups of disk partitions.

I have been using YUMI to prepare a USB FD that I can boot from. So far I have made ISO files of my Win 7 installation and imported them into YUMI, and booted to the YUMI's menu and I can access the image files stored on my USB HD. However I have not attempted a recovery because I would like to add diagnostic tools like diskwizard to the YUMI men but I'm unable to convert an exe file format to an ISO. Can you help me?

Ken

An exe is an exacutable file. Can be a linux exe... but I think you mean a windows exe(?????)
What diskwizard are you talking about?

Hello Kaktussoft,

Thank you for your help. I am sorry I didn't get back to you sooner but I just noticed this thread has 2 pages.

Net.tcp Port Sharing service has been started

Net.Pipe Listener Adapter - Windows could not start - error 1075 dependency service does not exist
Net.Msmq Listener Adapter - Windows could not start - error 1075 dependency service does not exist
Net.TCP Listener Adapter - Windows could not start - error 1075 dependency service does not exist

These 3 services are set to start automatically. When I click Start error 1075 appears and when I click on the Dependencies tab it says no dependencies. What am I doing wrong? :shock:

Uninstall that software. uninstall cdrom driver as well and let windows update reinstall it automatically

I used Device Manager to uninstall the driver for the CD/DVD drive. Then I rebooted and used Device Manager to install a new driver. Device Manager reported " Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)"
