Well you could go into registry and f3 to find the reg entries and delete them manualy, but I would recomend that you dont mess with it. If you do want to. Make a backup of the registry first. If you delete a wrong entry, you could keep your windows from starting - really mess it up.

I agree with Trev.
Regcleaner is a very good program. I have used it many times on different computers without it causing any problems.
Good Day! Mesich
