Orphans, Registry and Apps

Also appeared to me there was a misunderstanding on this. Just posted to ensure correct understanding. Yes, ya got ta take it all down and start from scratch. This does mean that you NOT Win, must delete both registry files. Also means a complete app rebuild.

However if you want to solve the bloat and any other registry problems cleanly, this is the only answer. The problem lies not just with WIN95 but also all the apps and demos we try out and then "delete/remove".

These removals, best case, leave tons of junk behind including in the registry. Just trying to hunt down all the orphan files could be a full time job. Easier and cleaner to start from scratch. Still a pain but will improve performance.
