RegEdit: XP PRO (w/all patches, etc.)

I'm trying to delete some crap in the Registry; it comes back almost instantly (& these are apps I had, not anything nasty).

If I can't easily DEL them, my first guess is that they are listed elsewhere - in the Registry, that must over ride my attempted deletions?

I have Lavasoft's RegHance and of course XP PRO's built in RegEdit. So, how do I get rid of this garbage, exactly? Advice on how to cast out (Registry) demons will be appreciated.

Thanks, SG1 (Pat)

 

Hi SG1

Give "Regseeker" a try. Get it at:

First time I ran it, it came back with 1,000 errors. All was perfect! Be sure to choose "Make Backup." To be extra safe also make a restore point! You could use a neat little utility "ERUNT" to make a copy of the registry also. "ERUNT" & Regseeker can be had for the handsome price of $0.00. Get "ERUNT" at:

Good Luck
