Do you or can you recommend a Registry Cleaner that works well with Windows 7?  In my searches I found RegAce to be the best recommend but on commencing to run the application Windows 7 gave a warning that it had not been tested on this OS.

What solution should I follow?

Thanks, DAVID.

Hello DaveJB,

Thank you for posting on the Microsoft Answers Forum.

Have you tried to use the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. Click here to download the tool.

You can use the utility to remove installation information for programs that were installed by using Windows Installer. Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.

Please reply back and let us know if this utlitiy helped to resolve your issue.

Sincerely,

Marilyn

David, I recently ran across a similar problem on a friend's computer.  I even tried logging in as administrator in safe mode... nada.  Then someone suggested this

The free version worked awesome.  I used it and then uninstalled it.

    I've been using registry cleaners for years. I have never found a problem. They seem to make the machines run faster, especially if they have not been run for a while. 

    To say reinstall is madness in my opinion.

    I have to keep the company machines running at peak and to reinstall them all every time would be madness.

    Uniblue Registry Booster is my one of choice. Right or wrong it seems to work and I'm happy.

    I think it has an award from Microsoft... but I could be wrong...
