You state you quote facts but you never state registry cleaners are NOT
needed and can cause problems.

While your experience shows no damage, mine is different. I can look
back though hundreds of customer records and note case after case of
a Registry Cleaning causing machine problems. Granted over the years
the programs have evolved/improved but not enough to trust them as a
globally recommended computer tool.
Every time I hear an ad for Registry Mechanic on the "Digital Goddess"
( Former attractive saleslady ) Kim Komando show, I cringe. Even she
should know better than to promote them as a "Cure All, PC Fix'er Up'er".
If there was such a thing as a effective/reliable Registry Cleaner then I
would make use of it. I think you're misinterpreting the advice given here.
It's more of "Do No Damage" caveat than Registry Cleaners are junk.
Most people who receive advice here want a problem resolved not a
lead-in to more issues than they already have.
Most experienced technicians have encountered machines where whatever
was originally wrong with a PC was made worse by a Registry Cleaning.
Registry Cleaning is a subjective process where it's difficult if not
impossible to know what the end results will be. Some clean a little -
others do more.
It's not like defragmentation where all products yield a similar end result.
That's my main issue with all Registry Cleaners, the subjective
determination
of what is & is not an invalid Key or Value. If you load any 3 Registry
Cleaners and run the scan the results of what each determines to remove
will be different. Until someone can develop a tool that is precise and
not subjective I can't recommend anyone using one. It's an unperfected
process that has more risks than benefits.
