Is it possible to delete a registry error a registry cleaner cannot challenge or delete?

I used 3 Regestry cleaners and they left some that they set. I would like to know how to get into my PC with Vista Home Prem to get rid of them.

Microsoft provides the Regedit program. Type regedit in the box to Start the Search on the start menu and press to enter. Incorrect use can make your system unusable, any change should be carefully.

More information can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Registry

Using registry cleaners is not necessary and rarely solves problems.

    Hello

    • What were the changes made before the problem occurred?

    I recommend you perform the clean boot.
     
    Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.
     
    See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

  • Error 2114 after cleaning registry with RegistryMechanic. The Server service is not started when I try to share a file on my local network and register to an older date seems not possible.

    I am using Windows XP Pro with sp3. Before interfering with the registry, everything was fine. Now, I tried inserting AutoShareWks and AutoShareServer DWORD in the LanmanServer\Parameter, but it does not work. When viewing in "Administrative Tools\.\.\Shares", "error 2114" is displayed. What's happening and where the change happened? How can I get my pictures on my mediaplayer again?

    taaiewillem,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  Unfortunately, a lot of registry cleaners may end up doing more harm than good.  I would check with the registry program, to see if it created any type of original backup before you start.  Now when you say that you "reset the registry to an older date" did you do this through the system restore?  If not then I suggest to run a system restore to a date prior to the registry "cleaning".  If that does not resolve the issue, then you do a repair installation.

  • What is the best way to correct the registry errors without the use of a registry cleaner in XP?

    I am sorry to raise this issue that so many people who have asked me.  I read pages and pages of discussions on the MS forum on this subject, and without exception, all the experts said Microsoft registry cleaners are completely unnecessary and that junk in the registers has no performance impact at all.  Instead, they say, to do x, y and z.  I am running Windows XP on my desk for five years, and gradually, he got so slow it's almost unbearable.  It takes 10-15 minutes just to start, and sometimes it takes 2 minutes or more just to open a window of browser (IE8) or go to the previous page by using the arrow to the left.  Before you tell me all the things it could be, please let me say that:

    1. my PC has not always been this slow!  It is getting worse.

    2. all my Windows software is up to date.  I have automatic updates on.

    3. I have a lot of disk space, almost 75% of free space on a hard drive of 80 GB.

    4. my PC is free of viruses, spyware and Trojans.  I have McAfee antivirus running and I also sometimes run Malwarebytes and Trojan Killer, because they always find things that don't have McAfee.

    5. I defragment my hard drive on a regular basis.

    6. I regularly delete all my temporary files by using the Windows Disk Cleanup utility.

    7. I have very little, if any "Add-ons".  No toolbar Yahoo or Google (or Bing!).

    8. I removed nearly every program that I start, so that they are not running in the background.

    9. I uninstalled all the programs that I don't use.

    However, I still have a slow ever-more computer.  Sometimes, when I see ads on TV to increase the speed of my PC, I download the 'free' software, and they claim to find hundreds or thousands of "registry errors.  When I look at the newspapers, I see many entries in registry for 'Netscape' and 'Google Earth', which I uninstalled years ago, as well as entries for the videos that I downloaded, seen once, and deleted a long time ago.

    So, what's the problem?  If it's not related to my registry (which Trojan Killer says has more 6 000 entries!), what else could be?  I would appreciate greatly any advice you can give, because there are dozens of companies on their touting their registry cleaners and the uninstall (for a price) programs, and after reading reviews of the MS MVPs, I'm skeptical of their claims.  Thank you.  :)

    I can't disagree with a lot of things have already been said.

    I'm willing to accept that your machine does actually takes 10 to 15 minutes on the clock. It's completely absurd.

    Some people call your "Windows Rot" problem. Becomes just the slower windows over time. It is a collection of things that are happening in the background. Yes I believe that the register contributes. Using a registry cleaner is not a "magic" solution But it can help a little.

    The PC care program/process you described is above average.  I suggest you add CCleaner. Disk Cleanup is not bad, CCleaner is better, cleaning of other stuff which does not resemble the DC. It won't be a significant difference because disk space is not your problem, but it will help a little.

    'Play' with the registry is VERY risky. If you decide to go ahead, I would say that first make you a copy of the full image backup using a utility that can be started and run from a CD/DVD. Just in case the registry cleaner breaks of your machine.

    Registry cleaners is that they take a "best estimate" to what is no longer necessary. Sometimes they think wrong. And each vacuum cleaner will clean slightly different sets of places.  If the tool does not provide a way to back up the registry before you start cleaning, do not use it. He is not careful enough.

    If vacuuming offer 'levels' of cleaning, enjoy. Open for more aggressive cleaning, with resetting and long series of normal use between cleanings.

    You are looking for a tool which also makes registry "defragmentation". The registry is a database that get disorganized by additions and deletions. Defragmentation will be re - organize and get rid of a 'lost' space, making it the smallest file, afterwards faster to read.  It is not something you need to do frequently, but since you've never done it in 5 years, it would help, after cleaning registry.

    Another place to find CPU and RAM wasted resources is Windows Services. These are small programs that start at boot time. They run in the background and provide support services to all applications or specific applications.  Many applications services are running even though you don't really need them. You can find information on which you can set by Googling for 'Windows XP hardening'. There are a lot of sites with good information. They call it hardening because by disabling unnecessary stuff, you leave less possible openings for the "bad guys" to the attack.

    Ultimately, I think your best bet will simply bite the bullet and re - install windows and all your applications. It's the best way to restore your computer to almost any performance fees factory. (It is not exactly factory fresh because you need to add a ton of Windows updates).

    Before you re-install, do copy image 1 or more full backups. At least one must be done using a tool that will easily allow you to extract the files. You data backup files separately to make it easier to restore the reinstallation. IE, copy it to a USB key.

    Many "experts" actually expect to, and do, re - install windows every 6-12 months!  I think it's a bit exaggerated, but they swear by it.

    Once you do your re - install, create a copy of the magnified image
    Install a firewall application (before the windows updates)
    Once you do all updates of windows, create a copy of the magnified image
    After that you re-install all your apps, create another copy of the complete picture.

    In this way, in the future, you have more current points to restore your computer to. It will reduce the time you spend to get back to the current configuration.

    On a 5 year old XP machine, you have probably 512 MB - 1 GB of RAM. You might also consider taking in the shop (or DIY) and bump the RAM up to at least 2 GB or better still max out.  The current versions of the applications use much more memory than they did 5 years ago. Even XP will be since he has been seriously corrected since then.

    Regwork is a registry cleaner?

    I highly recommend that you do not run and that throw you.

    Registry cleaning programs are all snake oil. Cleaning of the
    registration is not necessary and is dangerous. Let alone register and
    do not use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think, and
    What software record cleaning suppliers are trying to convince you,
    have unused registry entries is not really make you hurt.
    The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner by mistake
    delete an entry you need is much greater than any potential benefit
    It can have.

  • Registry files have been deleted via a Norton 360 3.0 registry clean up - can't get an ip address from the router

    I'm running Vista Ultimate, -connection (Ethernet) with Verizon FIOS I ran a Norton registry clean and foolishly trust what he says to remove.

    At first, all of my USB cards have been screwed up (noted in the Device Manager with exclamation next to each one points)
    I did a system restore and that corrects this problem, but now I'm having a problem with my network card.
    , All diagnostic tests, etc. show that the material is very good. My router is also fine the problem is that windows can't get an IP address from the router and then assigns his own
    (a # 169 instead of a # 192)
    In the network connection properties, it says that the device is functioning correctly, and the driver is up-to-date.
    'Connection speed' tab: a window of diagnosstics is: I ran testto test adapters connect to connect to the network.
    Results: connection Test
    Test details:

    I have "this card is configured to obtain an IP address automatically. No DHCP server is present on the network. Windows selected an IP address by using the alternative private IP addressing. »

    ! Could not detect way reliable speed and duplex settings. Possible speed/duplex settings are 100 Mbps Full Duplex and Half Duplex 100.
    (Note that these link tests are online and I can't online)

    Also in the Diagnostics window-under the 'Cable' link cable - past-polarity is normal.

    Results: all the tests:

    I also went in the prompt type in IPCONFIG... c which shows:

    Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0

    I also have a sort of ping command here-cant remember the command, but the results were in the CBS... I didn't know how to reach. He however escape from something on the registry files.

    I went throughD-Link Tech router (router) support is good, Fios Tech support everything set up right, - Norton support(Norton denies that the files were not to be touched-although their report shows these registry files were deleted)-Dell Tech support because my warranty missed 3 weeks ago - although I still have the "your Tech Support team until 2013 - which is valid only if you have a hardware warranty-made no sense sold me the car without. the engine - directed the FTC to bring a complaint about it - after I get this fixed number.

    I hope someone can help... by the way I get perfectly in line with my laptop - I know this isn't my router. I'm sure it's due to some registry files being moved-(j'ai eu deles de messages d'erreur indiquant que les fichiers de Registre ont été endommagées ou manquantes) what do I do now? No system restore to restore this part of the register - I also installed the drivers from the dell drivers and Utilities disc - but maybe I've done that correctly? I put the disc - extract files-(he says they have been unpacked) was a new step for me to do after that? Help, please!
    Thank you!

    Hello
     
    We recommend that you install the router (see its manual) and the pilot of NIC once more and check the difference. In the first post, you mentioned that you decompressed or extracted files. Once the files are extracted, you will be asked to install the driver. However if you do not receive any prompts for the driver, then you will need to locate the destination folder where the files are checked to find the configuration file.

    Open the destination folder where the files are extracted and run the Setup file to complete the installation.
     
    To download and install the latest network card driver, visit the site Web of the manufacturer of the device or system.
     
     
    I hope this helps.
    Kind regards

    I meet the apparently common "error 1328: application patch file C:\Config.msi\PT792.tmp... error" while trying to install Adobe Reader 11.

    During a previous installation my computer restarted automatically for another reason, where the Adobe installation was interrupted. Since then, this error keeps coming back. Reader XI does not appear on the list of program so I can't uninstall it. I have done a registry cleaning (CCleaner), manually deleted the files in C:\ProgramData\, etc. It still does not work!
