SkTools (Invalid Registry Entry/Value)

Hi guys, I need some advice on this. I am fairly new to this so please bear with me. I downloaded the new trial version of sktools from pocketgear and I was wondering if I should delete the invalid registry entries/values found by the the software? Or should I just leave it alone?? When I use cleanup it doesn't delete the invalid registries so I'm wondering if it can be only done manually or something of that manner.

Be careful. SKTools is an excellent piece of software, but it is very easy to screw up your PPC when using it if you don't know what you're doing.

I'm pretty comfortable with the PPC environment and I have deleted necessary registry entries a couple of time with SKTools and needed to hard reset to get all back to normal. (Even with a good backup, it didn't help me.)

I find the registry cleaners in MemMaid and PocketMechanic to be "safer," albeit less aggressive than SKTools.

Good luck.

As default sktools make AUTO backup copy of "Invalid registry entry" before you delete it. You can enable this also for "values".

After you delete entry you can restore it via "SKTools backup" option.
