How can I effectivly remove unwanted registry entries. If I look in my registry there are LOTS of keys for programs that have been uninstalled etc. I have run "Registry Mechanic" , but it does not help. It finds tons of other things to be removed from the registry , but programs that have been uninstalled are still there after the scan. I have tried other registry tools with similar results. Any ideas. Cheers Rob

Well, if you are snooping like that,and find some entry you do not like, then by all means delete the sucker, but do not complain if something goes wrong... .
