Re: Tool to rejuvenate registry in Win 7

[John Jones <chianime@xxxxxxxxx>]

Run CCleaner.  For things like temp files and all they're just deleted.  For
registry changes it lets you back up the deletions before it executes them
so if a problem arises you can right-click the .REG file it creates &
re-import the entries.

I was just running it this morning on my wife's Win7 Home Premium 64 bit
laptop & my Vista Ultimate laptop.
