Re: Tool to rejuvenate registry in Win 7

Run CCleaner. For things like temp files and all they're just deleted. For
registry changes it lets you back up the deletions before it executes them
so if a problem arises you can right-click the .REG file it creates &
re-import the entries.

I was just running it this morning on my wife's Win7 Home Premium 64 bit
laptop & my Vista Ultimate laptop.

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
site for legitimate use, but then need to remove later once I am done at
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.
