Re: Tool to rejuvenate registry in Win 7

I have the XP virtual machine(s). If you study carefully you can actually have more than one running at once (license issues aside, I have all the licenses I need) Mostly involves changing the MAC address on the virtual machines so they don't collide.

The problem with them is the performance is way too slow for any type of production use. It might be the limit of memory on the laptop but I have not investigated it far enough to be sure. VMware might be another solution, the performance there is better, but still not optimal for my usage.

One of the problems I face is software that I have loaded at a client

the client. Most of the software removal/uninstallers leave behind a
mess in the registry.

What are the best registry management clean up programs available. I
don't mind a small fee for the software if support is included.

You can download Virtual PC for Windows 7 to download and run 32-bit XP
(for those programs that cannot run well in Windows 7 64-bit).

Could you install your programs in that XP? Then you can just remove
that image whenyou are done.
