MyRegistryCleaner???

I installed this program on my computer the other day, and was charged $29.99
to my credit card, and then my computer REALLY slowed down.....So, I
uninstalled it to see if it would make a difference......I'm wondering if you
can retrieve items you've uninstalled, and HOW???

Thanks!!

What was the name of the program ?

Why did you decide you needed this program ?
..

If you saved the install file you downloaded, you just double click the
installer to reinstall.
Many websites will allow another download if you saved your purchase/install
code provided.

If it was a registry cleaner, I would leave it uninstalled.
In my opinion, a registry cleaner in the wrong hands is like handing a
loaded gun to a 4 year old.

Never use a Registry Cleaner; they are crap and often contain spyware and/or
viruses.
If you have to work in the Registry, do it manually, or not at all!

What you can do is a System restore to a date before you installed it.

Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore

Also, I have included here a list iof Security Programs for you to install
and and how to use!

http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

Avast Anti-Virus is Vista compatible (32bit and 64bit Versions), FREE,
auto-updating, and a low resources user of your computer.
And, only have 1(one) Anti-Virus installed / running on your computer at any
one time..
Conflicts may occur if you have more than 1(one).

http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html

Spybot Search & Destroy 1.5.2 is a very good, FREE Anti-Spyware Program.
Download, install, update, and immunize your System with it.
Then SCAN with it.
Update once a fortnight.

http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

SpywareBlaster 4.0 is a non-intrusive, FREE Anti-Spyware Program that runs
in the background.
Update it once a fortnight, and let it do its work in the background!

If you happen to find a problem that you can’t uninstall / delete, reboot
the computer, and go into Safe Mode.
To get into Safe mode, tap F8 right at Power On/ Startup, and use UP and
DOWN arrow keys to get to Safe Mode, then hit ENTER.
RESCAN your computer with Avast and Spybot S & D while in Safe Mode.

I think I would put that a little differently "the wrong registry
cleaner in the right hands or vice versa". There are safe registry
cleaners out there like CCleaner (www.ccleaner.com) used by millions
without problems. The Wise registry cleaner is another one, but that
one is a bit more "aggressive", but I have used it without problems for
a long time. Both of the above are free.

That is one feature of CCleaner that I do NOT use.

You were hustled. There are free registry cleaners available.

Those which claim to be safe are only safe because they are not cleaning as
thoroughly as you might want to believe. Others have settings which, if set,
can trash your system.

Win 9x registry did need the occasional overhaul. Win NT based operating
systems ignore orphaned entries, so removing them will make no difference.
It is all in the mind..

Forget that you paid $30 and move on without it..

The point is ANY tool used improperly can be dangerous and cause more
harm than good. However, in newsgroups like this one that's infested
with wannabe smartass types that pretend they're expert (not referring
to you, everyone already knows the handful of suspects it applies to)
it is all too common to hear a chorus of nay sayers screaming all
Registry Cleaners are bad, bad, you must avoid, which simply isn't
true. Like with any tool, used correctly it does the job intended.
Used incorrectly all bets off. Of course it rarely is stated that way
which is what I object to. People constantly babble based on THEIR
experiences. If they had a bad one with some Registry Cleaner then
they are likely to go negative as opposed to writing a balanced fair,
factual report.

I agree with you 101! Another aspect of this is that if you want to
mess around with certain parts of Windows like the registry, mbr,
partitions, stuff like that, make sure you have a way back in form of a
complete disk image backup or at least a registry back-up. I never
understood how people can complain about a trashed system when they do
not have a back-up. Even CCleaner can back up every change it does to
the registry. Very easy!
