Going about an annoying thing with registry cleansing..
« on: December 06, 2009, 07:01:24 PM »
Hi malware fighters,

For advanced registry cleansing, re:

The problem is that there's an annoying “feature” that is set so that the last entry viewed in the registry is saved. You can delete this manually -  however that's a pain really and there's a much easier way.
Download clean_regedit.zip from here: http://kgiii.info/windows/all/advanced/dl/clean_regedit.zip
Save it where you find it appropriate. When you click the VBScript file it will open regedit without it having remembered where you were last which makes it a great deal easier to navigate,

CCleaner resets regedit to the begining.

In CCleaner see Applications then Windows then select RegEdit
