bobarry Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I upgraded to a 8.1 computer and installed CCleaner on it. It gave a LONG list of registry errors and I am wondering if the program has been tested/validated with 8.1???? I'm tempted to let it clean up but save the deletions to see what happens, but I would feel better if I had some input from others. Thanks BoBarry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted June 17, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 17, 2014 Definitely w8.1 compatible. I've had w8, then 8.1, then 8.1u1 more or less as they have come out. I've run the reg cleaner maybe 3 or 4 times on my PC since w8 with no noticeable ill effects but there-in lies the rub, reg problems can take ages to show up. So absolutely do the offered backup before any reg clean. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted June 17, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 17, 2014 Please, whether it's Windows 8.1 or not, don't just clean everything listed. Follow the advice 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.
