Filters for Windows Registry Cleaner

Recommended Posts

It can be very tedious to scan all registry errors and determine which entries are safe to remove, and of course very dangerous to simply remove all registry errors.

It would be helpful to create filters to scan for registry errors within a specific vendor and/or product, and thus be able to clean only those entries.

For example, you just unistalled a product and would like to remove registry entries for that product which the uninstall process left behind, without removing entries for the Windows OS or other products.

I've never seen a single registry cleaner function as you've explained. Registry editors for manual cleaning do that via searching though. It would be an interesting concept although the complexity of the registry means if you for instance only search by vendor name you're going to miss a plethora of leftover no longer needed keys that don't go by/under the vendor name and also some use 3rd party software to make theirs function.
