Win 7 compatible - have used this and deleted all 1200 entries it found. It makes a backup - been running for several hours and reboots with no probs.

Also working fine so far on my Vista x64 and Win 7 x86 installs.

After cleaning you need to shut the app. and reopen it for it to find it's backups. (Easy to find them by hand - it can compress them to.7z files, too.








Have used their regdefrag a lot - identical scans and results to the Auslogics and Glary versions- so use whichever defragger you already have.

WARNING: not recommended to defrag registry across drives.

I have used so many different reg cleaners in my life, why no success. I didn't kill anything like in that article, but it has never help Windows run as fast as a clean install. Not even close.

I've never actually run into any real problems having tried out a variety here as well. When you run a cleaner it supposedly shows all these entries and a few days later it again shows another list being removed? gimic!

RegMechanic, RegCure, Registry Doctor or whatever, and others tend to be nothing more then sales gimics with some causing a problems at times likely from a bad install or misidentifying a valid entry. I've heard that complaint on a few.

The article is a little overbearing there while still pointing out just how ineffective most automatic cleaners are. The writer probably had a bad install of one of them and simply wants to make an issue out of that to fill a blog page.
