Guest andysacks@live.com Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Hey guys, My computer kept on giving me 3 error messages. So I googled them and ran into a company called pc-kitchen: http://www.pc-kitchen.com They said that their registrycleaner could solve my errors. I downloaded the program and it solved 2 of my errors. Now i have one message that appears. Will buying their full version fix the last one? Has anybody even heard of this product\company and share their experience? Thanx, AndySacks AndySacks@live.com

Cleaning of the registry isn't needed and is dangerous. Leave the registry alone and don't use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think, and what vendors of registry cleaning software try to convince you of, having unused registry entries doesn't really hurt you. The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner erroneously removing an entry you need is far greater than any potential benefit it may have. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup

There is no real need for registry cleaners, other than to provide a profit to their manufacturers. On rare occasions, registry cleaners can be, in the hands of a skilled technician, useful, time-saving diagnostic tools. Otherwise, they're nothing but snake oil. Why do you even think you'd ever need to clean your registry? What specific *problems* are you actually experiencing (not some program's bogus listing of imaginary problems) that you think can be fixed by using a registry cleaner? If you do have a problem that is rooted in the registry, it would be far better to simply edit (after backing up, of course) only the specific key(s) and/or value(s) that are causing the problem. After all, why use a chainsaw when a scalpel will do the job? Additionally, the manually changing of one or two registry entries is far less likely to have the dire consequences of allowing an automated product to make multiple changes simultaneously. The only thing needed to safely clean your registry is knowledge and Regedit.exe. The registry contains all of the operating system's "knowledge" of the computer's hardware devices, installed software, the location of the device drivers, and the computer's configuration. A misstep in the registry can have severe consequences. One should not even turning loose a poorly understood automated "cleaner," unless he is fully confident that he knows *exactly* what is going to happen as a result of each and every change. Having repeatedly seen the results of inexperienced people using automated registry "cleaners," I can only advise all but the most experienced computer technicians (and/or hobbyists) to avoid them all. Experience has shown me that such tools simply are not safe in the hands of the inexperienced user. If you lack the knowledge and experience to maintain your registry by yourself, then you also lack the knowledge and experience to safely configure and use any automated registry cleaner, no matter how safe they claim to be. More importantly, no one has ever demonstrated that the use of an automated registry cleaner, particularly by an untrained, inexperienced computer user, does any real good, whatsoever. There's certainly been no empirical evidence offered to demonstrate that the use of such products to "clean" WinXP's registry improves a computer's performance or stability. Given the potential for harm, it's just not worth the risk. Granted, most registry "cleaners" won't cause problems each and every time they're used, but the potential for harm is always there. And, since no registry "cleaner" has ever been demonstrated to do any good (think of them like treating the flu with chicken soup - there's no real medicinal value, but it sometimes provides a warming placebo effect), I always tell people that the risks far out-weigh the non-existent benefits. I will concede that a good registry *scanning* tool, in the hands of an experienced and knowledgeable technician or hobbyist can be a useful time-saving diagnostic tool, as long as it's not allowed to make any changes automatically. But I really don't think that there are any registry cleaners that are truly safe for the general public to use. Experience has proven just the opposite: such tools simply are not safe in the hands of the inexperienced user. -- Bruce Chambers Help us help you: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/555375 They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. ~Benjamin Franklin Many people would rather die than think; in fact, most do. ~Bertrand Russell The philosopher has never killed any priests, whereas the priest has killed a great many philosophers. ~ Denis Diderot

IMO paying for it won't do you any further good and you should not purchase it. You have no way of knowing what malware etc. it may put on your machine. Personally I would avoid them because they are unknown to me. A quick surface check shows them not to be spammers or on any blocklists and I don't see any complaints about them, but ... that doesn't mean they aren't trying to force you to spend money you don't need to spend to get that "last" error taken care of; typical of malware movers. You might try ccleaner and see if it can help you. Other than expensive ones, it's the only free one that comes to mind right now. Google for it. HTH Twayne

Guest Ken Blake, MVP Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 Re: pc-kitchen registrycleaner On Fri, 24 Oct 2008 18:08:18 -0600, "Doug W." <stand@attention> wrote: > CCleaner is relatively harmless and is a useful utility if one > selects what one wants to clean. I use it every couple of days > and especially after I delete some program which I no longer > need. I've never heard too many complaints about it. My view is that CCleaner is a good product, and most of its features are not only useful, but harmless. However, its one feature I recommend *against* using is its registry cleaning. Using that is a potential problem, just as it is with any other registry cleaner. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup
