    If I added a D-Word in registry editor but then deleted, is that safe? Is won’t cause...


    I was trying to turn Hibernation Off in the registry editor. I went to the CurrentControlSet, then to Control, then to ‘Power’ and then added a D-Word of ‘HibernateEnabled.’ But then I realized that I already had that named ‘HibernateEnabledDefault’ so I deleted the D-Word of ‘HibernateEnabled’Is this bad?

    Deleting Registries in Registry Editor

    When you delete in the Registry Editor, it's alternative way to free up space?

    registry defraggers- safe?

    I have 2 registry cleaners that find alot of errors (usually deleted files w/ registry entries pointing nowhere because of it) and I delete them, so I suppose this fragments te registry. I have never once defragged the registry in my life and I'm wondering
    1. Is it safe to do?
    2. will I see a performance gain (anything to 1 more FPS in a game to faster load/boot times)
    3. What is the name of a good registry defragger?
