i noticed similar when i run my registry clean tool, it says removed but scan again and their still there

i'm guessing its a UAC thing?

vista just doesnt seem to be for those who want to maintain a lean pc, but mine seems to stay optimized pretty well so guess i cant complain.

well this does not seem to interest many but i did a full install

of vista home premium with the appropriate drivers and when exporting the registry i ended up

with a 96.6 meg file.

Then i made a lite cd removing many large modules (language, natural voices, lot of drivers,,,)

and with the same machine and same drivers i ended up with a 86.4 meg registry file.

I also searched for relevants reg entries of removed stuff (ex : canon drivers) and found some entries

so it seem to shrink the hive but leaves some entries.
