My subscription is about to expire for Registry Mechanic [PC Tools] (which
searches for redundant registry files and also will compact my registry), and
I am hesitating to renew because the existing version doesn't seem to be
approved by Micosoft for Windows Vista (my OS). Can anyone tell me please of
a similar app which works well with Vista?

Hi Martin,

I use Jv16, it works with Vista, only the 32 bit versions.

Martin, I should add more : clean-up is for the registry and temp folders -
tune-up is de-frag and the protection scan malware removal could take
an hour+
 
Thanks for you helpful info and links. I have used Live OneCare Safety
Scanner in the past. Forgot this did a registry clean too.
Thanks.

You can also clean your temp files and de-frag from here.
Here is the Vista version :

Tom, The only thing i see relating to cc cleaner is RegistryCleanFix.com .
One other site for cc cleaner is marked red by Site Advisor. Ron
 
Hi Ron,

The reason i ask for the link is that Martin repeat talking about
CCClaener, but when i Google i only find CCleaner, so i think maybe some
sneaky person has a download with cccleaner with a virus or spyware!!
I use Ccleaner now for several years without any problems but never hear
something about cccleaner! Martin is the only one that is talking about it!
So Martin give us a clue! ;)

For Tom
I haven't tried Jv16 (whatever that is), but have risked using Registry
Mechanic again (by PC Tools) because they now reassure me that it is 100%
compatible with Vista, altho they still say it has only 'basic support' ie PC
Tools won't, at this stage, guarantee it will be problem free.
You asked me to answer your other mail, Tom - was this it?

Hi Engel,

You spot one link, "pirateacces.com" sounds very trustful ;)
But no danger, they start to ask money if you want to download there, so
maybe you get CCleaner also but that you have paid for it! ;)
Maybe this is the one that Martin meant.
Engel also a good weekend and dont take the photo albums to the beach
with you, but something to take a photo! ;)

silver hair;

A word of caution. You may want to do some reading and thinking first
before you jump into using any registry cleaner including one written by
Microsoft. The damage risk potential can far outweigh any possible benefit
you could derive by using such an automated cleaner on any modern Operating
System.
