User's Manual

Area Description
Fonts
Windows stores entries in this area of the registry for all fonts installed on your computer. Since
these entries are often not deleted when fonts are uninstalled, Windows tries in vain to load
these fonts every time the system starts up.
Windows
services
During installation of programs belonging to Windows services, a registry entry is created. The
associated entry is often not deleted when these programs are uninstalled.
Windows
Firewall
The Windows firewall saves the programs that may accept incoming network connections and
stores an entry for each one in the registry. These entries can become incorrect or invalid if, for
example, one of these programs is uninstalled.
You can see therefore that deleted files can leave behind a lot of "ghosts" in the registry. TuneUp Registry
Cleaner finds all of these orphaned entries and can delete them in a targeted fashion. We therefore recommend
that you perform the complete check.
