Computer Q&A Board / RegVac / Outlook interference
Posted by: nuromri@aol.com, May 31st, 2007, 2:12pm
Each time regvac runs it removes files Outlook needs to run. Sometimes Outlook will reinstall these files, sometimes it will crash until it reinstalls these files and sometimes I need to undo regvac to get outlook to run. How do i get this to stop?

I am not aware of any problem with Outlook. It may be specific to your computer.
Just tell RegVac not to remove them. RegVac's Help explains how to do this on the Keep Bad Keys page in the Others section.
You can also send me the entries and I will program it into RegVac to always skip.

It happens with Outlook 2007 and perhaps the other suite 2007 apps. I beleive it has happened on two diff pcs but I am not 100% sure of that. How do I know which keys to omit?

Look in the undo file. It is usually just one entry. You can send me the undo file and I will tell you which one(s).

Dear Ray,
I also have this problem with Outlook 2007 and every time I use RegVac Outlook has to reinstall afterwards. Can you please tell me how to rectify this?

I thought that I told how to rectify it.
No one has sent me an undo file so that I can permanently have RegVac skip them. The undo files are found in the RegVac directory. To get there, right click on the Start button in Windows and select Explore from the popup menu. Go to C:\Program Files\RegVac Registry Cleaner. There are files there that begin with the word, undo, and then numbers. Those are the undo files. They correspond with the undo files shown in the Undo section of RegVac.
If you want RegVac to skip everything in an undo file, just rename it to redo.reg.
Below is the page in Help that I referred to before.
RegVac Help
Keep Bad Keys
Sometimes software improperly enters a key in the registry. RegVac removes these improperly entered keys, as it should, but often in doing so the software that entered the bad key will not work. To keep RegVac from removing the bad key follow the instructions below.
First you will need to find the offending entry. To do this open Windows Explorer and find the undo files in the RegVac directory.
Once you have found the bad keys, copy them into a new file (they must have the same format that they had in the undo file) and call that file redo.reg. Put redo.reg in the RegVac directory. Before entries are removed from the registry by RegVac, RegVac checks this file and does not remove the entries in it.
