Question about Registry Cleaners/Fixers?
August 23, 2009
I saw the new “Aro 5” Registry Cleaner advertised today.
The free edition, like many others, offers to scan and fix 20 errors.
It scanned and found 1040 errors.
So what in a Registry is worth fixing, and what is just collected “junk”?
The choices are:
Active X and COM
Application Paths
File Types
Help Files
History Lists
Shared Files
Shortcuts
Software
Sounds
Start Menu
Deep Scan
Current User
Are any of these cleaners actually worth their weight?
Thanks!
how can I clean registry keys from norton internet security?
August 23, 2009
Help. Does anyone know what registry keys to modify/remove in order to wipe out all remnants of norton internet security 2006? I have tried the norton uninstaller tool already.
My problem is, I have purchased Norton internet security 2007, and it keeps associating it to the key I had installed for Norton Internet Security 2006, even though that product has been removed. I never am given a chance to enter my NIS 2007 key. Norton software claims that my subscription has already expired – since it is counting days based on my old 2006 key.
This is a legitimately purchased NIS 2007, ebay of course, but legal with a 365 day key.
Do I need to use the cleaner or is a system restore better? I have 512 ram installed but it says I have only 504 on my computer. Also how do I install ram? And how do I found out what kind of ram I have?
im afraid to touch the inside of my computer and crucial can not find any suitable matches for ram upgrades. is there anything else i can do?
