Recommended Registry Cleaner for Win 7 64bit

Read the quick guide to CCleaner
and the check boxes documentation page. Ifyou don't want it to clear your cache etc., you can just use the registry ccleaner by itself instead. I also find that the tools section generally loads faster than Windows' Programs and Features or Add/Remove Programs functions, and accesses the same uninstallers. The Startup section also appears less daunting than msconfig's for most users. I have it installed on a usb stick and use it regularly on older computers at work

Thanks. During maybe 10 years I've been using CCleaner that Tools>Startup editing window was added and I didn't even know it! Sure is better than using msconfig. And I use CCleaner at every install and monthly anyway.

I dont' let any startup items run except my AV and MS gadgets/stikys. Mean, but lean.

Registry Mechanic® 9 for Windows®

+1...been using it for years.Only to clean tho, I turn off the monitor and I never use the compress or compact options.

I've been using it for about 6 years. I was a little leery about Windows 7, but it hasn't failed me yet. I do use the compact option also.

CCleaner, i don't do anything else with Reg fixers or defragers or anything.
