Registry cleanup: Detect unused filters

[qwerty12_1]

Hi,

 

Just a suggestion, sorry if it's been suggested before: I wanted to get rid of VMware. Its uninstaller failed to work so I decided to do it myself using plain Delete, the Windows Installer Cleanup Tool and the VMware cleanup tool. Yes, I know doing it yourself isn't good but what was I to do?

 

After rebooting, I found that my mouse worked, yes, but upon pressing a key, both keyboard and mouse stopped working. This persisted even in Safe Mode.

 

After some Googling, I found xxxxxxxxxxxxx and after looking at the key mentioned, I saw it was trying to load the non-existent VMware filter. This brings me, finally, to:

 

Can CCleaner check those keys mentioned there and the ones for the CD drives (their drive letters are not shown when a filter for them is missing) for any filters that do not exist? My apologies if CCleaner already does this.

 

Thanks!

I'm no techie, but I can't relate that link to your supposed problem, so as it's a link to a commercial software engineers site I've removed it.
