It hasnt happend to me, I use Ace Utilities, it has filters so it keeps the important keys.
I wouldn't worry about it to much. I use jv powertools 4 and i search clean reg all the time. I even delete the ones it says they may not be safe to delete. Never had a problem also all of them usually undo option. They are safe for the most part.
i use a freeware (regseeker) and b4 that aa tools, never had a prob with either
one, and most progs should have a backup feature in case you do need to restore
somethin (just check to see if mechanics has one) pretty sure it does, if not
get one of the afore mentioned progs (jv or ace) heard good things bout em,
just too lazy to hunt em down :lol: (the freebie's workin for me)
A fully functional registered cracked Jv16 powertools is available on suprnova via bittorrent. Only one i know of that is pre cracked. Works great ;)
jv16 PowerTools isn't for novices. Ace Utilities is idiot proof. I use both.
hasnt anyone cracked AA tools
Try google/ AA Tools fm9fy (any common reg part from a popular software will work here)
It should bring up a list of crack and warez sites that have it.
the best registry tool imho is a combination of>1. regedit and 2. years of experience(regwisdom)
Nobody asked for your snotty opinions. This thread is about automated registry cleaning software.Quote:

I use RegSupreme. It's very fast, very thorough and very idiot-proof. :)

:D
well, it looks like i've been a naughty boy.......for what it's worth, supernatural, i got shot down in a hail of digital fire for admitting on irc that i didn't really know anything about the registry-->so i was kiddn' . yeah, i suck . i can only edit very very simple keys, and the only cleaner i use is windoctor inside norton system works. i have jv16 installed but it finds like 500+ bad keys and i'm too chicken to use it :lol:
OMG now smurfette is gonna point and laugh at me :P :P :P
hmm, regmechanic isnt workign today. when i click on it, i get a error message saying "general extraction error
location ES1"
what does that mean?
go for RegSupreme
Id say use tweak xp ( download it from klite ) never had problems with this great software
hell ya that shit happen 2 me i d/l Ad-Aware it Removes Spyware and other unwanted software.Quote:

i uninstalled jv16 cause it has 2 much stuff i dont know how 2 use/dont need. i got regsupreme but i dont now how 2 (rack this either! help plz
i have used alot of these the best one and easiest one imo is registry mechanics

Just download and use RegCleaner instead. It is Freeware and was the 1st registry cleaner build by the same guy from Finland who also built JVpowerTools.Quote:

Only regcleaner is smaller and only takes care of your registry.
Very simple and easy to use.
