Raritan wroteStreamlining Startup is a great idea, but the program has no way of knowing that not all startup programs are un-desirable. So there should be a way to easily reverse the changes made - item by item. Even better if I could customize the startup sequence and insert adjustable delay for each startup item individually. Such functionality will be more valuable than one size fit all sledge hammer 'optimization.'
To undo the Startup Optimizer, just open the Startup Optimizer in PowerTools, choose "Disable" and hit OK. This will undo all the changes it made to your system. Thank you for your suggestion about being able to customize the startup sequence, we will consider adding it to the next version!

Interesting observation regarding Registry cleaning and compaction. I made a registry backup of my Windows 8.1 desktop using a third party utility before running jvPt 4.0.0.1480, the size was 130MB. After cleaning and compaction it was 131MB ...
A size of the registry stored to a file in disk doesn't really tell us much about what is going on inside the registry. For more detailed data, you can use the Registry Information tool of PowerTools X.

and the Startup programs were all messed up even though I UN-checked the option to optimize the Startup !
Do you mean you unchecked the Startup Optimizer from the Clean and Fix My Computer tool before running it? What do you mean exactly by the startup programs being "all messed up"?
