RegCure for cleaning registry in XP

I know the advice here has been against registry cleaners.

This product called RegCure was written up very well.

Is there anything new in the 5 step maintenance routine recommended by
techsupportforum and why shouldn't I use RegCure?

Re: RegCure for cleaning registry in XP

Hi -

You've already noted that most of us here do not recommend the use of registry cleaners.

Our colleague miekiemoes has an excellent writeup here

Another excellent article by Bill Castner is located here.

Yep, okay. I'll for forget it.
