Dead registry entries

[bawldiggle]

After uninstalling "IncrediMail" using Revouninstaller I discovered (manually) 589 left over "IncrediMail" registry items.
(Find > next/F3 ... till my finger developed RSI .. "rather sore index")

With CCleaner I have deleted those 589 entries (one at a time to be sure of safe deletion)

Subsequently I found a plethora of allegedly infertile registry entries (using CCleaner)
Filtered to capture ...

• Missing Shared DLLs
• ActiveX and Class Issues
• Obsolete software

I still have a list of 84 questionable registry items, in these categories...

• Missing Shared DLLs
• ActiveX/COM Issue
• Invalid firewall rule

As per this View attachment registry.txt file. -- tab delimited list created in CCleaner

I have used the portable CCleaner for first time.
Previously I have used the installed version, where I could add entries to the "Exemptions" list.

Would appreciate knowing what can be deleted ?
I am willing to grovel if necessary

Thank you

If you allow CCLeaner to make a backup before deleting then you should be pretty safe.
Creating a System Restore point before doing the deletions is also a good idea.

Backup the registry and then you can delete the entries in question. If one fouls the machine you can recover from the backup.
