if anyone can recommend a non-destructive, competent registry cleaner, that would be great.


I have used CCleaner many times and never had it cause a problem.

It creates a backup of the registry entries before it deletes any registry entries.

However it is very rare that cleaning the registry will result in any computer performance improvement.

Removing unwanted/unnecessary software is a much more effective way to improve performance; especially programs that load automatically when you start Windows. Cleaner can enable/disable what runs on Windows start up.

CCleaner can also help you remove the unwanted software, but Revo Uninstaller does a much better job of uninstalling and completely removing software.
