Question of CLSID for the Windows registry

I have a ton of entries under

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\

who have no default value set for InprocServer32

Have I reason to think that, if no DLL is listed to load these entries are just too much room?

can I remove all these with no ill effects?

It seems to me that they were left by the prior uninstall such as JAVA, which leave a ton of garbage behind.

I want to clean them manually - I didn't trust these automated registry cleaners.

Thanks a lot for a simple answer to my question :)

It's good to be wary of the registry cleaners, but one of the reasons why they are useless is that the registry has no need to be 'cleaned' unless there is a specific problem which must be addressed.  The entries refer to absorb a significant amount of disk space and have no ill effects whatsoever.

  • How can I add a product to my Adobe account or locate serial number by using the Windows registry?

    I can't find my receipt of e-mail on my purchase of CS6 end 2012. (I had a long illness, packed things away and now experience some loss of memory) I want to start again use my CS6 and thought that I would be able to go to my Adobe account to retrieve my serial number. However, my account does not show the order or registration of CS6 under my products even if I received an email from Adobe System Incorporated, welcoming me and thank me for my purchase. Cat officers do not find the corresponding product to my e-mail and refuse to make exceptions or provide assistance to a disability or illness. They say that they must have the right email address associated with the product or a proof of purchase! Other software companies have helped me to locate the serial number by using the Windows registry and then had me answering security questions. I even offered to fix the Adobe email thanking me for buying the CS6, but they said, it would not help! Does anyone know if/how I can add the CS6 to my account and get partner to my email address? Maybe Adobe cat could help me? Also, does anyone know if an encrypted version of the serial number is indeed somewhere in the Windows registry, which make possible for Adobe to help me, if they were ready? This software was very expensive and I don't understand why they won't help me if they could.

  • Request concerning the sequence of updates for the Windows Update client in 2015

    I posted a query similar to this on a Microsoft Technet forum, but I have not yet received a response to the specific question that I asked.  I'm trying so this forum.

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, but I did not intend to accept the free update of Windows 10.  I don't use automatic updates.  I use Windows Update manually and select the updates to install, even for these updates identified as Important.

    Since April 2015, there was a sequence of updates for the client Windows Update on Windows 7 (Windows 8).  I have the Windows 7 of those below list:

    KB2990214 (April 2015)

    KB3050265 (June 2015)

    KB3065987 (July 2015)

    KB3075851 (August 2015)

    KB3083324 (September 2015)

    KB3083710 (October 2015)

    KB3102810 (November 2015)

    KB3112343 (December 2015)

    (This list is probably less intimidating than it looks because the replaced October update Update September, which replaced the August update, which replaced the July update, which replaced the June updated.  "There are therefore basically just 4 updates.)

    The big question is, given that Windows 7 is available for several years, why, all of a sudden, there was this sequence of updates for the Windows Update client?  Because these updates began to occur at the time when the offer of a free upgrade to Windows 10 was announced, I could be forgiven for thinking that all of these updates are really directed towards the relaxation of the upgrade to Windows 10 via Windows Update, and that there is little or no advantage to systems that are not upgrading.  I am mistaken in this belief?  If not, precisely those who will benefit from my system, even if it is not upgraded to Windows 10?

    The updates that I currently installed, depending on the installed updates, are KB2990214 (April 2015), KB3075851 (August 2015), KB3083324 (September 2015) and KB3083710 (October 2015).

    In my view, there was a lack of transparency in the descriptions of these updates in the KB articles.  And, in one or two cases, information on the importance of an update in the article and in Windows Update has been inconsistent.  It would have been much clearer if each KB article stated for NOT upgrading to Windows 10 systems, if the update to the Windows Update client is important, as an option or completely irrelevant.

    Hello, Tiberius.

    I'm sorry for the late reply.

  • dDoes anyone know of any legitimate code of windows search programs and a way to get the code for the window using the product id and receipt of a store

    Original title:

    Windows code

    I have 2 questions... 1 is - anyone know of any legit windows code, find online programs for windows on a computer code. My wifes sister and she want to fix his computer by putting in a new hard drive and installing windows, but I wanted to see if I could legitimate his computer code and the sticker is missing, damaged already.

    2. is possible to get the code for the window using the id and product received in a store you microsoft some how I have two computer, I bought my children 3 years ago and to replace hard drives with larger ones, and one of them still has readable sticker.    Thanks again

    As I said, reported for an installation by the manufacturer OEM of Windows key code reflects the image of their system and not the license key on the sticker that is what is needed for a re-installation of consumer, is not surprising that the Samsung 2 is the same.  The key to the thumbnail is not stored anywhere other than on the tile.

    If you cannot or do not want to clone the disks, you can buy a recovery media set at the manufacturer or new media of Windows 7 (becomes very expensive and problematic for the commercial version that MS no longer sells it).

  • Error: "no physical memory is available to the location required for the windows boot manager." The system cannot continue. "

    I have a stable system that works with a processor E6300, card mother evga 680i, graphics card 8800gts and 8gbs of RAM running on ulitmate windows 7 (32 bits - I decided to re - install with 64-bit to use the extra 4 GB of RAM, after I deal with the question below).

    I recently tried to add an adapter of Intel RS2WC080 SAS/SATA controller in a PCI express slots on the card mother 680i. I know that the card works (such as "it works very well in another motherboard), but for some reason when I put it in the 680i mobo I get the following message appears when I try to start windows. (i.e. the raid controller has no windows on the disks. I always use original hard drive always connected on the same Sata port on the motherboard)

    "No physical memory is available to the location required for the windows boot manager." The system cannot continue. "

    I tried to turn off virtually everything I could in the bios of the motherboard as an experience (including the things I needed). I also disabled the Intel RS2WC080 card bios.

    I'm puzzled. So what I want to know is simply a hardware compatibility problem, or is there some kind of workaround I can run in windows 7. For example, is there maybe some sort of way for her to start using a different memory location than its currently using? (Or is it something error message related to the memory of the bios that can only be overcome with software?)

    Thanks for any help.

    I tried to disable everything in the bios... including the things I needed. No luck

    Thank you very much for the reply Chris but I don't have abandoned bascially. Right now I guess the card and the 680i have some kind of incompatibility and I will just get a different mobo.

  • Print directly to the printer option in the Windows registry

    I need to find the location for the option "Print directly to the printer" in the Windows registry.  I am trying to create a GPO to enable this option when connecting and I can't find the place for that.  Is this possible to do?  If not, is there another way to activate this to start for all users?  We run Adobe Acrobat X on Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit.

    Thank you

    This parameter is actually a printer in Windows, not in Acrobat.

  • LVRT 8.5 in the Windows registry: where is it?

    Hello

    I am not satisfied by the System Installer OR. So, I moved to thing as NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page) that is spectacular so far and gives really a total control over all aspects of the installation/uninstallation process.

    So I made my request with LV 8.5.

    The idea is that during installation, the NSIS installer will check if the TERM Labview 8.5 is installed in the system, if so, it will continue the installation, otherwise it will start the installation of the LVRT 8.5 first.

    Then, in the Windows registry, where I can find information on the presence of the LVRT 8.5?

    In other words: when I correctly install the LVRT 8.5 in a computer running Windows XP, the strings and Dwords it will write in my registry? and in the paths of the registry?

    Thank you

    PS: Windows Vista? There a registry?

    Hello Pierre,.

    You are right.

    The registry keys written by the development environment or just the execution time are the same.

    So, just as you said, you will find them under HKLM\Software\National Instruments\LabVIEW Time\8.5 run.
