Is this program, Malwarebytes, trustworthy?
Is there a way to backup only the things about to be changed before doing "fixes"
If I needed to restore an item or items, could I cut & paste from the Malwarebytes log file to the appropriate Registry location?

The thing is that these "issues" are all Registry issues ... and I'm not "fluent" in Registry. So I don't want to make a mistake here.
But I would like to get rid of these nasty sounding items.
Any comments?

Malwarebytes is totally trustworthy, and is one of the best applications for malware detection and removal.
When you remove the selected objects found, they are quarantined and can be restored from the quarantine tab.
Always update before scanning, and it's recommended to use the quick scan because it will do a very thorough job.
Here's a great program to back up the registry.

@SkyWired,

Its funny that I just suggested Erunt to you because it just saved me today.
I rarely use it but I'm always glad I have it.
System restore failed to restore my laptop today due to an error.
I used Erunt to restore the registry to this mornings backup and bam, I was good.
Its very easy to use and you won't even know its there until you need it.

Just a few helpful hints.

1) When installed, allow the program to autobackup at startup.
I shutdown at night, and the next day when I startup the backup it created.

2) I changed the total number of days that will be backed up to seven, as 30 days by default is to many for me and can use to much space.
Open the startup folder in all programs then right click on Erunt Autoback then select properties.
In the target add the switch /days:7 or whatever days you want to the end of the target then click OK.

It should look like this...notice the space.

CODE

"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\AUTOBACK.EXE" %SystemRoot%\ERDNT\AutoBackup\#Date# /noconfirmdelete /noprogresswindow /days:7

3) You can manually create backups too. Lets say you want to try out some new software that you don't want to trash your PC.
Just create a backup before installing, then if you have the need to restore the registry after uninstalling the software, your able to.
A Manual backup with Erunt has multiple uses, like when cleaning or editing the registry.

4) To restore the registry from a backup, navigate to the Windows folder ERDNT.
Open the Autobackup folder and the date you want, double click the ERDNT application then click OK, OK or Cancel.
After the program has finished restoring the registry, click OK to restart the computer which will activate the restored registry.

Thats it.

Windows Vista and Windows 7 users should use the task scheduler instead of the startup folder for autobackups, this will avoid the UAC blocked program popup at startup.

Here's a link to a topic that I posted to show you how.
