Wise Registry Cleaner

Hey all,

Has anyone used this registry cleaner before and is it any good?

Ive tried Eusing and Regbooster but these have issues on Vista x64 with the Wow6432 registry keys and get stuck scanning for long periods of time and also throw up many duff errors.

Thanks,

Alex

If you want a basic one use the inbuilt one with Ccleaner.

I use the CCleaner one already but the registry cleaner is far too basic and not thorough enough...

I thought that too, and then installed regseeker which promptly grabbed my Vista installation, bent it over, and then did *stuff* to it.

Just because another cleaner finds more entries than Ccleaner - doesn't always mean it's better.

Doesn't it show you the keys before yo ucan remove them? always backup your registry before deleting any keys...

It's always a good idea to check through them, most are slef explanitary

That's true, but I've never had problems with and have never had to back up what Ccleaner does.

Regseeker is so "good" that it finds a stupid amount of entries in its sweep, too many I'd say to browse through in a reasonable time.

I've used this cleaner [Wise Registry Cleaner]for ages now without any problems. It's a free one I got from majorgeeks .The previous one was Regtweaknow or something like that , I used that for years and still no problems.
