Need advice for registry cleaner

Hello, as you can see I am new to CCleaner. I have already used the Cleaner section and all went well. Now I am thinking of using the Registry cleaner.

I guess I should mention that I have read through the online Beginners Guide and I see that there are alot of things listed there in the registry section. When I ran the Registry Tool just to analyze, it listed alot of items. I didn't clean anything out yet.

So, my questions are these: Is the Registry cleaner safe to use? Are there any things that I should not have Registry cleaner remove - and if so, how can I tell what those items may be.

Oh, and I really don't have any problems with my computer, I just thought that using the Regisrty Tool might help me keep a clean computer.

As you have read the guide you will have seen mention there of a backup which will be offered for you to agree to making if you decide to clean the registry. This is a good thing to do if you decide to go ahead.

Also have a restore point or another way of backing up the registry.

I say this not because I believe CCleaner is dangerous (it's one of the gentle cleaners) but because when you do it for the first time, it can be scary. :)

Registry cleaning however is not as necessary as people think.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, in reading the guide I did see that an option to back up is available. And I know how to make a system restore point, so that's a good idea too.

Maybe I'll think about it some more before I do it. I appreciate your advice.
