Ilgenfritz,
I use the free Wise Registry Cleaner and had not had any problems with it so far.

Personally, I would never recommend anyone who's not extremely versed in the Windows Registry and it's structure, to use any Registry Cleaners.
They're not needed in the first place since 500 keys may take up a whole 50Kb's of space, so there's no space savings to be had, and any orphaned keys will NOT slow down your system...they're "orphaned" which means nothing is trying to access them anymore, and since it only takes a few milliseconds to load the entire registry, any time saved loading is not measurable. Most reg cleaners will also list false positives at some time or another, so unless you're qualified enoug to recognize those as such it's best not to use one. And most folks never go thru the list anyway so...bye-bue to a needed key now and then.
About the only things that do any real good are Registry Defrag and Optimizer that rewrites the reg hives into disk areas that have faster head access times. Still, it may sabe 1 or 2 seconds overall, so do you want to take the chance that during the process something doesn't become corrupt?
Registry Cleaners are a good example of a program that made it's own Customer base by telling people how awful it is to be without one, without actually offering any real proof of such.

As I said elsewhere, I worked with iobit to get this working for x64.
This new beta works great in x64

for all versions of XP and Vista, CCleaner has worked best for me in all cases. I have used it on XP with no service packs all the way up through SP3. Vista with or without SP1 as well as 64 bit versions. Not to completely disagree with Chappy, because most of the registry cleaners out there are completely useless, and for the inexperienced they can cause more harm than good. But every time I have run the registry cleaner part of Ccleaner, I have gone down the list and found everything safe to remove with no side effects. And I can attest to noticeable speedups in almost every case. Of course, you should already be doing the normal checks and maintenance like defrag and chkdsk, and be using antivirus long before you get to the registry.
