Try using a Registry cleaner that is less aggressive then RegCleaner.

Remove invalid registry entries:
Frankly, the registry is overrated as a speed tweak, in general, but it does get large and can contain many invalid references. [COLOR="Red"]The registry is not an area for even the average computer user to be playing around in.[/COLOR] The good news is CCleaner has a safe registry cleaner built in, so why not clean out old, invalid entries?

Click the [B]"Registry"[/B] button.
Click [B]"Scan for Issues."[/B]
Click [B]"Fix selected Issues."[/B]
[COLOR="Blue"]You will be prompted to back up the registry. For the first run I would suggest doing so.[/COLOR]
Thats it, your done, a safe, fast registry clean.

I use RegCleaner and would never advise it for an inexperienced user. First, when you don't know what an entry is, you search for information, just like I do. Too many users are asking for Registry Cleaners and don't have a clue how to use them!m This is not an area you want to fool around in.

Get Tune Up Utilities- it has a Registry cleaner that will backup and remove what need to be removed. An inexperienced should not be asking how to use a Registry Cleaner because they should not have one!

"someone help me check which software i need to remove from my system" You don't remove the software through a Registry Cleaner!
