Hello.
Does anyone know of a windows file cleaner where you can pick individual files from the Registry ?? instead of search delete all.
Regcleaner is OK but it misses a lot of stuff. I clicked on Remove Liquid Audio rebooted and i still found 6 liquid audio files in the Reg.! I didnt remove them manually as i always fall flat on my .... !!
Thanks.

When I uninstall a program with his own uninstaller or from add/remove programs
I found that RegCleaners Orphan file reference finder works well.
It finds all the leftover entries.

Be "really" careful using any utility that says it can find orphan files. This is a hit and miss situation at best.
If you actually use this function, and delete that files, make sure you keep a backup, and keep it for an extended period of time.
