I'm trialling this program and have noticed that over on Wilders, and elsewhere, the author and others are clearly sensitive to problems that can be caused to the software through the use of registry cleaners. Do we know if there is any likely conflict with STU or AU? Or is this a problem with more ...

Thanks for that.

Just added one to my desktop - user licence is a bonus! First registry scan has thrown up page after page to clean up. This seems a little counter intuitive on a new computer but I guess it should all be removed. Do Dell really leave all these entries behind when setting up a machine? Is there a rul...

Thanks for your help.
Out of interest do you know how the entry gets created in the Registry?

Hi Aneesh The couple of topics that have my UserName on them now were not authored by me. If you look at the topic on Page 3 under the title Duplicate Files, you will see that it is credited to Jimbow86 - this was posted by me. In fact the responses from Cal and others include my UserName as the per...

In the list of programs, one entry reads as follows - from the report file: <Not Found> Registry : Local Machine Run Enabled Under name there is a yellow? followed by a blank entry and a ? in a balloon. Does anyone know why this appears as an anonymous item? Is it suspicious? Is any action advised? ...

I notice - at least on the General Index - that several threads incorrectly state my UserName as the Author and a couple I have started are credited to another.

Hi, I bought a laptop as a gift. It came with WinXP Media Center but has an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and 2GB of RAM allowing an upgrade to Vista Premium if desired when it is released. My understanding is that the Processor is 64bit. Does this mean I should purchase the 64bit version of Ace Utilit...

Where is it posted how the newest version of AU (eg., 3.1) differs from its most recent predecessor?

Hi, I want to eliminate a handful of specific cookies. In the AU tool, I have several hundred cookies listed. The window requires one to check all the cookies one wants to keep so that the unchecked ones will be eliminated when the tool is executed. Is there an easy way to check a whole bunch of the...

I recently ran AceUtilities and Registry Compactor.

Now, my screen saver will not kick in.

Any connection or any ideas how to re-enable the screen saver?

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Are there SPECIFIC advantages to using Ace Utilities Software removal tool over Add/Revove Programs--in other words, does AU remove more for example than Add/Remove Programs? Does it remove registry entries installed when a program is first installed. Can you be specific? Again...

I have a program (Spyware Eliminator by Aluria Software) that I need to uninstall and eventually reinstall. Is there any reason not to use the AceUtilities Software Removal tool to do this (instead of Add/Remove Programs in WinXP)? What exactly does the AU program do that the Add/Remove does not? Un...

Many thanks--the Messenger Options "fix" worked perfectly. More importantly, your quick and accurate reply has confirmed my decision to purchase Ace Utilities. It is rare these days to have prompt, friendly, and accurate support. This combined with a high quality, yet simple and powerful program mak...

I am enjoying the trial version of Ace Utilities and have been trying to stop the Microsoft Messenger program from starting up and being placed in the system tray when I start my computer. I used the function in Ace Utilities to "uncheck" it from the startup group. On the next boot it does not show ...
