Did my registry cleaner remove important?

[NliteForAcerAspire]

Hello.

I made small and nice nlite windows for my acer aspire one.. after all the drivers,firewalls,avg, firefox installation.

Everything was loading on the taskbar super fast on windows start. I mean fast.. Anyways i made a registry clean, cleaner found 67+ problems in registery. (program is registry mechanic)

After clean -

reboot was slow 2-4 second slower

Taskbar icons was loading SLOW

Does old cleaner just remove nlite tweaks or something? Anyways, I install the windows again tomorrow to test.

NliteForAcerAspire, I would not think that a Registry cleaner would or even could remove nLite tweaks. Most cleaners I have experience with have an 'undo' function. Use that to see if everything returns to like it was. Unless you disabled Prefetch, it will slow boot times as you use more and more programs and Windows loads pieces at startup. Please let us know, John.

You are right johnhc. Prefetch folder was missing + my registery had only 2 thingys for prefetch :-P

I made undo for my registery cleaner, but nothing happened. What i should do now? Just copy those values from my another laptop and plug on aspire registery?

And I wonder what removed that prefetch folder+ registry values. My desktop+second laptop have those (desktop computer even have more tweaked nlite :S) - Been playing with nlite 2-3 days thought, maybe i removed prefetch by mistake, if thats even possible)

edit: I need to check advanced tab on nlite next time.. Sleeping time now..

Disabling prefetch is part of nLite tweaks. Wether you've done it or not, you should know. Note that as Johnc says, prefetch will not decrease your boot time, at the contrary.

NliteForAcerAspire, please attach (not paste) your Last Session.ini. Make sure to always start with a fresh copy of your CD files/folders, do all your work in one nLite session and integrate only one SP. You may need to rebuild, not copy stuff from another PC. You should consider using a virtual system, such as VirtualPC, VirtualBox, or VMware Server Server. They would be perfect for debugging this kind on problem. Enjoy, John.

LAST_SESSION.INI

Here it is.

edit: My other computers have indexing service disabled and they have working prefetch. (fast boot+ fast item load on taskbar)

edit2: Task Scheduler is needed for the prefetch - I found the answer :S
