Re: Registry Clean-up

   I have been using JV16 Power tools from Macecraft Software
   http://www.macecraft.com/.  It can be set to backup before removing, and
   seems to do an ok job.
   It is not too expensive, and has a lot of other nice tools with the
   registry cleaner.

   Have fun

     Anyone got any experience with good registry clean-up tools?

     I ran the Free Registry Fix tool that PC Mag have on their download
     site.
     Trouble is while it reported hundreds (literally) of errors on the 6
     month
     old machine, it has a number of problems.

     - This free version only fixes 50 items.
     - It doesn't tell you which 50
     - It doesn't back up the registry before it starts (every other fixer
     I've
     ever used does that - or at least suggests you do so - so it didn't
     occur to
     me!)
     - It doesn't tell you what is wrong - so it is tough to tell whether the
     report is genuine or not

     Given the above I'm very reluctant to hand over the dollars for the full
     version.

     Any suggestions?
