Re: Registry 'cleaning'
Yep me too on this one. I just need a cleaner to clean out the invalid ones and ones left behind by uninstalled programmes.

Re: Registry 'cleaning'
I've used Regclean in the past and its always been ok for me.
What version of Windows do you want it to work on?

Re: Registry 'cleaning'
If you scroll down to posts 6/7 on this page you will find links to the last free versions of Reg Cleaner, very good but unfortunately not now free.

I have never used it on XP, used it a lot on Win 95 and found it very good, also used it to remove items from start up.

Re: Registry 'cleaning'
In the past I've used SuperrRabbit Registry Optimiser it cleans, degrags and compresses the registry.
