Reg Cleaner that came with JV16 Powertools has expired for me.
Can anybody recommend a free registry cleaner?

You could also download the free program "RegSeeker". I've used it and it is a good registry cleaner.

I used TweakXP once, but that stopped M$ Office from working. So go with RJ5500 or aqlo instead.

I do all my registry stuff by hand...
Its not that hard to do if you just use some common sense and dont delete things slapped with the MS label.
For the super paranoid, backup your things before you try it.

That's often difficult to do, as uninstalled programs, especially adware supported types leave up to 10 or more entries behind, in different sections, under different and unidentifiable names.
Likewise, many programs share some entries, delete one for a program you dont need, and it could spell a disaster.
I would go with RegSeeker myself, good luck on hand cleaning :fire

If you use WinXP this one works great.RegScrub XP (http://www.freedownloads.nl/RegScrub_eng.htm)
I also tried Tweak XP's, which DID work well for me too. I just found the program itself unstable.
