We believe you are seeking Microsoft RegClean utility and that's why you
navigate to this page. If you do a search for RegClean in Microsoft site, you
will get a text link which says RegClean Utility Is No Longer Available from
Microsoft site. Why? RegClean is a small utility provided by Microsoft which is used to clean the Windows registry for Windows 95. The latest version of RegClean is v4.1a which is released on December 30, 1997. (Amazing? It's nearly 6 years ago). According to document from Microsoft, the RegClean utility is only compatible with Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0. That utility is NOT compatible with Windows ME, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Even on Windows 95/98, it will cause many problems as it is not updated for nearly 6 years and is not compatible with many new technologies in today's Windows. One example is RegClean will cause problems on software which uses Windows Installer technology even on Windows 98 (For example, MS Office 2000 and XP are both use Windows Installer) See Q299958 in Microsoft Knowledge Base for details (You can also find the statement by Microsoft for the RegClean Utility in the last paragraph in that KB article: The RegClean utility is no longer supported and has been removed from all Microsoft download sites.) If you are running Windows 95, 98 or NT4, and don't care about the problems RegClean might cause after reading all of the above, you can still get RegClean from some web sites even if it is no longer provided from Microsoft sites. You can click the following link to download RegClean from CNET http://download.com.com/3000-2094-881470.html CAUTION: It is only compatible with Windows 95, 98, NT3.51 and NT4. DO NOT use it on Windows ME, 2000 or XP. |

If you want to find a registry clean tool which does provide the functions in RegClean but also works on Windows ME, 2000 or XP, here are several utilities we have tested. Those utilities are provided by vendors independent of Microsoft. Besides the functions similar with RegClean, they also provide some more functions regarding registry such as registry backup/restore. Most of those tools are shareware, that means you can take a free trial of them without paying, but to keep them after the trial, you need register with the manufacture for a small fee to keep them.
