I am sure that most of you are familiar with the debates that rage in the USENET group microsoft.public.windowsxp.general regarding the prudence of automated cleaning of the registry. I, in fact, used to do this routinely. However, after reading the remarks of some of the MVPs in there, I am frankly scared of doing this anymore.
It would seem though, that there should be levels of risk. i.e., that some registry issues could be fixed with virtually no risk, and that others might involve, relatively, the maximum risk. Furthermore, it may be, (I'm just guessing here), that most of the registry issues might involve very little or no risk; and conversely, perhaps the high-risk issues are very few.
So my question is this: Has anyone in the CCleaner community ever "risk-ranked" the registry cleaner issue items, so that one might choose beforehand which he would wish to fix routinely, and which he would prefer to leave alone, or at least treat very carefully?
Thank you very much,
