•Clean
The Registry Wizard - Clean dialog box appears after you select the Clean
option and click Next > in the Registry Wizard.
Select the items to clean up and click Finish.
Registry Wizard removes selected items from the registry and exits.
• Repair
After you select the Repair option and click Next > in the Registry Wizard,
it scans the registry and displays the Registry Wizard - Repair dialog box,
which lists all invalid entries in the registry.
Most likely, you’ll start by clicking the Repair All button to let registry
Wizard repair all the entries that it can. After you do this, Registry Wizard
displays the Registry Wizard - Repair Report dialog box.
This Repair Report lists the registry key entries that Registry Wizard can fix
along with a description of the file (and its location) that will be used to
repair each registry key entry.
Select any key entries that you want to fix or not fix, then click either the Fix
or Don’t Fix button. The selected key entries are fixed or not fixed, and the
Repair Report dialog box closes. The Registry Wizard - Repair dialog box
reappears, displaying the remaining key entries that still need to be fixed.
You can select a key entry and click the Repair button to manually change
the value for that key. Or, you can click the Advanced button to go to
Registry Pro and edit the orphan entries using that McAfee utility instead
of Registry Wizard.
