I suppose there is a way to go to a beach and one by one pick up the
individual grains of sand and count them, but who would want to? Using
Regedit to manually search for specific tidbit over and over seems
silly to me when a Registry Clearer will generate a list of what it
finds suspect without interaction on part of the user.
OF COURSE it is up to the user to determine what if anything should be
deleted from the Registry. What I object to is the numbnuts crowd
automatically rejecting Registry Cleaners outright pretending everyone
will just push some auto clean button. That is no more a reflection of
reality than the example of counting grains of sand on a beach is.
