How is WXP-Home registry cleaned?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.registry (More info?)

On another MS NG I was told to leave the registry alone - but what about the
hundreds of useless keys/trash that collects there? When we had W98SE we
used Regedit, but what is used for WXP-Home? Anyone?

I can't believe no one cleans the registry in XP.

# What do you do when there are thousands of unnecessary keys there? Just
leave them? Don't they slow down the PC?
