jv16 PowerTools 2009 Beta2 released

curt

Got this "Failed to remove" error after removing registry entries with the Registry Cleaner. Cleaning the dust out of my server now. Kind of busy but here's a screen shot of the error. Had to unplug the monitor from my KVM switch to take the picture. Might be able to update my report soon...

System Optimization tool

I haven't done any of the tweaks yet.

Does the tool have any "undo" features?

Result: the fix did not happen and an unwanted, useless item was added to the registry.

Can anyone reproduce the problem with these instructions?

Reproduced and confirmed here!!! See attachment.

The Registry Cleaner Custom Fix Fix manually issue

Incidentally, the issue is more extensive than I realized.

Also reproduced and also confirmed! (see attachment)

Conclusion: Tullik's right: it is really a BUG!

Of course, simply open the tool again and uncheck the tweaks, this will undo the changes and restore the original values back to the registry.

This Undo feature should be indicated prominently on the System Optimization page.

You are correct, I have now added a tip to the System Optimizer that tells you this.

You are correct! I was now able to reproduce the problem and fix it, so thank you very much for reporting this problem!

Finally that's very good news for the guys using "Custom Fix" and naturally a pat on the back for Tullik (once more) who discovered that bug and kept stubbornly reporting it.

I noticed the Context menu is missing in the Registry Cleaner's Results window in Structured List.

Right clicking an entry doesn't have any effect.

In Raw list there is a context menu with e.g. "Open in Regedit".

Why is it missing in Structured List? Is that by design? I think however it's always interesting to be able opening every entry in regedit with the context menu even in Structured List.

Found and fixed a bug from the Registry Cleaner: the right-click Never show again feature didn't work.

Something's wrong, there should be a right-click menu with the Registry Cleaner also when using the structured list. Can anyone else get the menu? I can.

I have tried again: nothing to do! Right clicking any entry hasn't any effect. So, no context menu for me.

But I found something else: when I highlight an entry and I click on the little square with the 3 dots at the top right of the screen, it leads me to the right place of that entry in the registry editor, so no need for the context menu for that :

But anyway I have no context menu in the Structured List :

When editing a task, the OK button is "live" in all three tabs, and the user could paste invalid characters into the "Save as…" input box but click OK in one of the other two tabs.

I took that into account, no matter how you attempt to save the new task, its name will be automatically cleared from invalid characters. Starting from the next released version, that is.
