On what gadget? You should probably take a back up of registry before running the tool if you want to analyse. BTW, most of of these cleaners are useless. Why exactly do you care about cleaning up registry? Probably, unless you were doing some naughty things and now your computer has a brain of it's own I do not really see much of a point in cleaning it up.

Windows 7 Enterprise - I have a problem with updates so try things to fix it, but didn't run the tool after it told me I have 721 applications and 134876 registry errors...

You should look at log from whatever tool you are using if you are familiar with registry entries. If not, let it be. Unless of course it looks really really suspicious (I did typed really twice intentionally).

Perhaps that includes 700 Windows updates.

I am ashamed I could not come up with it.

I unchecked that option, and I have much more than 700 windows update

Don't tell me your Vista transformed to 7 through updates.

185 for me. Of those, at least 25 or so see regular use.
Just curious, how many years did it take to accumulate that many applications? My current workstation is a little of 4 years old.

You mean it doesn't tell you? You're just supposed to trust it?
As others have mentioned...registry cleaners are little more than snake oil.

I tried one once, and was impressed with how much stuff it found and fixed.
So I ran it again, immediately afterwards - and it found even more after it had fixed 'em. Never used one again.

Seriously? The canvasjs site has all sorts of great examples.

I have seen plenty of great examples in theory, I'd rather read 5 posts and see the application working well in practical, stable and not just one site.

Today the wife gave me a package and said "Open this". It was a plastic container holding a pair of Chef's shears. I'm the one around here who has to open all packaging or bottles, etc. The plastic was too hard to open with my bare hands. I immediately thought of Asimov's story.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, your post is too vague.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

 You did read the very short story in your title? My reply was an apparrently vague and confusing reference to the story...
I'm an Asimov fan, have most of the books.

Yes I did read this story, in 1957 as a matter of fact.
In the story the space travelers were being supplied with instruments they needed, but the instruments were packaged dis-assembled, with a set of confusing instructions about how to re-assemble the instruments. They requested a robot that knew how to assemble the instruments. It was shipped, and came dis-assembled, with a confusing set of instructions about how to re-assemble the robot.
I was given a package which I couldn't open because the plastic was too tough to open with my bare hands. Whet I needed was a good pair of shears. The package contained those very shears.

You didn't need to, nor will I explain my reponse for the same reason.

If it's any consolation, in the 80s I worked for a company making VDTs - Terminals, big heavy metal terminals[^] for computers. They were shipped in a big box that opened at the top, and the unpacking instructions were...on the bottom, under the terminal.
