When I run the 2011 registry cleaner on the default settings, I have only two remaining "useless file extension" that are marked to be fixed. (They were not "fixed", and remain when I "Fix" again, but that is hardly a worry.) Registry health and PC health are both recorded as 100%.
When I then run the 2012 registry cleaner of my newly-installed-this-morning jv16 2012, however, again on the default settings, I have a huge number of entries to "fix". The numbers of items in the six headings are:
* Invalid file or directory reference: 187
* Software deep trace item: 1173
* Useless empty key: 232
* Useless file extension: 103
with Registry Health 1% and PC Health 6%.
I would expect the new version to find a few more entries, but this is ridiculous. The "Health" percentage readings are also not credible because the PC is running well. I am so concerned that something is badly astray with the 2012 version that I have not "fixed" anything yet.
I clicked on a few entries and looked through them. With about a third of the entries I chose, I could certainly recognise programmes that I had uninstalled, but I could not make sense of the other entries I looked at.
Before I run Registry Cleaner 2012 again and click "Fix", could someone from Macecraft:
* Explain why the item numbers are so high and the Health percentages are so low, and
* Assure me that these item numbers and Health percentages are not some sort of bug in the new version.
