Guest Heirloom Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 Re: RegCure Re: RegCure My question would be "Who are these so called experts?" Most of what I saw was simply a replication of the hype from the RegCure web page. Never having heard of it or used it, I cannot give an opinion. However, based on what little I have seen, I would be double throw down skeptical until I have heard from someone of repute that has hands on experience over a period of time (more than one instance of cleaning). Personally, I would consider the jury still out.

Guest Alan Edwards Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 Re: RetgCure Like any loaded gun, it is safe in the hands of an expert (but then an expert probably wouldn't touch it with a barge-pole) A quick look on a search for regcure ratings gave this: http://www.download3000.com/RegCure-user-reviews-15901.html 34 stars out of a possible 80 is rather poor. That is in the 2 stars out of 5 range. Google a few more to keep you happy. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP Windows - Internet Explorer http://dts-l.org/index.htm On Sat, 8 Dec 2007 20:44:42 -0500, in microsoft.public.windowsme.general, "webster72n" <webster72n@gmail.com> wrote: >RegCure, is it and how safe is it? > > Harry. >

Guest O.J. Newman Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 Re: RetgCure Hello: The following review on Download3000 caught my eye and makes me suspicious of RegCure: "Free download scam Will download for free and scan but you will need to purchase in order for the program to delete bad files- will not remove anything in the free download, ..." I have read good things about EasyCleaner (freeware) and have had no troubles with it. See: http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2007/PL2007SYSTEMUTILITIES.php#3.02RegistryAndFileTools . Although, I don't think it does a registry backup before cleaning, so I would create a system restore point before doing a cleaning. And CCleaner has recently been discussed here, pro and con. For what it's worth .... Cheers, O.J.

Guest webster72n Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 Re:Re: RegCure Re:Re: RegCure In answer to the "wise-cracks": I found this somewhere "in my store" and it looked decent to me on the surface, so I figured, why not 'ask the experts in lieu of searching for it. If nothing else, it helped keep this group alive, didn't it? Cheers, Harry.

I trust it more than most regcleaners but regcleaners are in fact reg mutilators. Just make a separate partition for storing files and installing programs, have ME on on the first partition (C:) at around 3 gigs, and when your system goes bad simply reinstall windows and have it fixed faster than you can get responses to your questions or download junk programs that do more harm than good. Also a chance to update programs while you are at it.
