I have this cleaner also, but you have to be careful what you tick to remove..It will remove all your cookies if you're not careful..I think ccleaner has a fairly good registry fix tool. It's quite easy to use.
Download and install, click "Registry" on the left, then "scan for issues" at the bottom, and when the scan is finished "fix selected issues".

I doubt if they'll find that fault, as cleaners generally look for unnecessary entries.Will any of these help with getting the message, on boot-up, "Registry Data Not Found" on my laptop? Have had this for about a year with no other apparent problems.

Well I downloaded Jouni Vourio's RegCleaner 4.3 and followed your instructions on setting it up..Open CCleaner, go to Options/Cookies ..there u can select which ones u like to keep, such as hometheatershack.com :cunning:

I have personally used this freeware with XP for years now, Install and click on Help/read me to explain what everything does.
Or just follow the way I was taught here...
Open Regcleaner 4.3, click on 'Tools/Registry Cleanup/ Do them All' (it will now scan, be patient)
Then when it's done, click on 'Select' tab and click on 'All' ...now at the bottom click 'Remove Selected' ..then 'Done'
The next thing to do is click on the 'File Types' tab.
Then click on the 'Description' bar, this will sort all the files below in alphabetical order.
You will now scroll down and tick only the 'N/A' files, only the N/A files ok !addle:
Now 'Remove Selected'
..... congratulations :T
ohh by the way, some dual core machines have issues running the program...u need to Open Regcleaner, then Task Manager/Processors/RegCleanr.exe right click and select Set Affinity, now untick one of the processor cores.
No I'm not..Hey Prof, are u using a dual/quad core machine ?
Thanks. Will put it off until this summer when I have the time.I doubt if they'll find that fault, as cleaners generally look for unnecessary entries.
You can likely find the culprit by going to START->RUN and type MSCONFIG, then click the Startup Tab and laboriously uncheck each startup entry and reboot to see if that stops the error. Repeat.
When (and if) you find it, reload that application or utility.
