Thanks for the info. I finally decided...I will not use any registry cleaner at all!
The reason I considered one was because my two year old Win 10 SSD PC is noticeably slower now to boot up, even after cleaning up Startup apps and temporary files.
But it performs well so I can live with that!

Well, if the registry sets up some app to auto-start, that would have a definite impact, but what you need then is something that identifies things that auto-start, not a registry cleaner. The registry is just one location for setting up auto-running apps.
SysInternals has AutoRuns, which is excellent for tracking these down. But, be careful about what you delete with it.

Thanks for the info. Win 10 settings has a StartUp section which lists
all auto start apps and their relative impact. I don't see anything there that may cause a slow boot. I am not really concerned about it, just curious.

Right...that thing...keep in mind that it's far from complete, and doesn't show what MS really doesn't want you to disable.

UK To Send British Food To Moscow[^] as part of new sanctions announced by Parliament. EU deems the action to be 'inhumane and disproportionate.'

True enough! I had dinner at Churchill's Pub in Savannah, GA years ago, and was promised authentic British cooking. I ordered the roast beef, and played some darts with a couple of locals while it was prepared. I honestly tried to eat what was served, but it was disgusting. Only two things were fit for human consumption; the Yorkshire pudding, and the ale. Didn't the Geneva convention cover this sort of inhumane treatment?

The original plan was to send the Black Watch with their bagpipes. That was considered cruel and unusual even by the Scots.

Is that all the sanctions and such seem to draining the Internet of Russian troll farms.
The forums I haunt are back to being human.
Either that or it's a heck of a coincidence.

Going to war is less dangerous than trolling you and your friends?

On a pure technical view, I do not see how the sanctions could affect trolling - Russia still has internet, and the trolling is mostly done via VPN, so not necessarily easy to trace where it comes from to do a country-based ban.
What I could imagine is that the trolls have gotten new tasks in the last week that holds them away from their computers.

I don't know. I'm just grateful for the relative calm, particularly since I moderate in some cases.

Some politicians who were "weak" a few weeks ago, have grown a spine; according to observers.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

A politician is a man who is so thick-skinned that he can stand upright even if he has no spine.

Outlook and Google to communicate with each other and share a damn address book.
Every time I add a contact, I have to enter the data to both, so my outlook contacts are up to date and I can email, and Google gets it as well so I can call via my phone.
(If my landline phone could also share the names and numbers that would help, but that's just pie in the sky. Just the computerised devices with internet access sharing would do.)
If it annoys me, just imaging how irritating it must be for less technical souls ...

You mean, baskets are generally a bad container for eggs ? Or was that in one basket ?
