what is the difference between "standard" and "thorough" options when doing a registry scan? when using the "thorough" option i get about 3000 additional entries listed.

thank you

The "Thorough" option performs a more intensive scan algorithm. :wink:

thanks for the reply.

is it safe to use the "thorough" option when doing registry scans?

Hi,

If you are not worried of reinstalling one or two applications, then go ahead with the 'thorough' option :)
Normally, it should not cause any problems, but if you are not happy to experiment, don't use it.
