    Should I be worried?

     
    Hi

    The problem goes like this:

    I scan my PC with 1-click maintenance from Tune up utilities and I get maybe like 40 problems in the registry and I repair them. Ok

    So I scan PC like 4 or 5 hours later and like 40-50 new problems appear. Is this normal or is it something wrong to get so many problems in so little time. Is something crashing my registry? As for the PC it is working ok and all the virus and adware scans are getting negative results.

    Thanks for the replies.

    if they are just like tracking cookies then that is fine, just means u get around. . . but if they are something other than that such as programs then you might have a problem

    If you are using something like CCleaner or EasyCleaner, or, as I imagine any other tune-up program that removes recent History, Last typed URLs, tracking cookies, ect., after a very short period of time, they appear again. That is completely normal. Look at the list of files that your program removed. If those files are in folders like "RecentURL", "History" or similar, the files are fine and will reappear again.

    they detect some minor registry changes caused by games or softwares as irregularities.

    Or you could have a lot of viruses or spyware changing your registry all the time
