MS Registry Cleaner
Hi all-knowing people out there.
Can anyone tell me the name and details of MS's Registry Cleaner. I've tried searching MS's catalogue but no joy to date. (must be looking for the wrong name :-)). All I can remember is that the program icon was (I think) an exploded cube in red??? TIA folks -- Delboy Many have made a trade of delusions and false miracles, deceiving the stupid multitude.

MS Registry Cleaner
Was that the *RegClean 4.1*??? I have copy on here but it doesn't work
on XP, I believe. You can't find it because MS no longer offers it. It was never meant to be used by the general public, if I recall the story correctly.

You are probably right Heather, maybe it's the 20-20 vision of hindsight
:-), but now you remind me of the name it sounds familiar. I don't run XP, just ME, I'm sure it worked on ME. Can you unmunge my addy and send me the file?

I've been using System Suite's registry fixer for over five years and a friend has been using it since Ontrack wrote it over a decade ago. Some registry fixers are crap, others aren't. It does make a difference in performance, fixes things and I highly recommend it. Get it at www.v-com.com/ Alias

Hi Mike, The only problem I ever came across when using a reg cleaner
(RegSeeker), was to render unusable Control Panel/Add/Remove programs/Windows Setup. You emailed me a registry file to restore this function. Could you remind me of the key ID and/or email me the file before I do anything silly. :-) -- Delboy Many have made a trade of delusions and false miracles, deceiving the stupid multitude.
