Don't blame ccleaner, you should have looked at your registry entries before cleaning. Did you create a backup of the registry items as prescribed by the cleaner? if so just merge them back into the registry.
If you didn't you'll have to reinstall the program, or try a system restore.
From now on your best bet is to follow the advice laid out in my signature.

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

You could exclude that key from being touched by CCleaner:
"CCleaner\Options\Exclude\Add Registry". Select the Hive name in the small window, and the rest of the address in the other.
When done correctly, the "OK" button becomes active.

Yes i can exclude the key by unchecking it.
I did not because the key is described as 'obsolete'.
In fact it's not
