Registry Cleaning necessary?

deleting registry with some registry cleaners necessary? its there for a reason anit it?

 

yea it is very important cause more trash u have in ur registry slower ur os runs so once ina while u have to clean it ,tool i use is Crapcleaner its freware , works fine.

 

because different registry cleaner deletes differently. like registry mechanic, it deletes some the ccleaner dont delete and ccleaner deletes some that registry mechanic dont. its the same with other registry cleaner too.

 

i delete like 20 registry with registry mechanic and scan with tuneup. tuneup found 200 more. lol wth

 

Personally unless you are using a LOT of different apps and installing and uninstalling a lot of things registry cleaning isn't necessary. Your registry that you have for all of your programs isn't really that big of a concern HD space-wise so cleaning is really more of an iffy thing that could easily mess up a lot of things.

 

It's more an issue of parsing the files, it can cause quite a bit of sluggishness. That said, I tend to just go through and delete things manually from time to time until it's time for the annual reinstall.

Just be careful, a LOT of registry cleaners have spyware or malware.

 

No, it's never necessary.
And most of the time, it doesn't even make a noticeable difference. Only a few registry keys actually have a noticeable impact on performance (in particular startup items, and sometimes a few others)

And true, while in theory, having more stuff in the registry would slow down parsing of it, it's hardly a major issue, and besides, you're never able to trim it down significantly. (Removing, say, 500 entries is a drop in the ocean. The registry is huge. If you can remove half a *million* keys, you might start seeing a slight performance difference.)

 

I do registry cleaning. For fun .

I always get over 60000+ with Regcleaner Pro, though it did not make a noticeable difference in speed.

 

I used a registry cleaner once on my old system, but it probably messed it up more than it was before...

I use RegScrubXP when I notice a program behaving abnormally, or if I've done an inordinate amount of uninstalls. Sometimes, cleaning the registry of damaged program keys can correct issues with software. I don't buy into a performance boost unless your performance really sucks to begin with. And if that's the case, a defrag would probably help much more.

 

Probably not cleaning the registry per-se, but I think a lot of registry cleaners out there are bundled with other tweaks and tools which *may* result in a speedier Windows install.

 

Tuneup Is vary Good For Vista user*

 

I've always found registry cleaners to cause more problems than they fix, YMMV.
