The tool does what it says to the please the average eye, but it leaves a hell lot of crap in the registry, Program files, Temp folder, My Documents etc. to name a few. Some of it that wont budge even with the best of registry cleaners.
Use the tool, remove the remnant folders from various location and use jv16 or some other registry cleaner. A manual cleanup might still be required for the very “particular” types!

Yes it does, “it leaves a hell lot of crap in the registry, Program files, Temp folder, My Documents etc.” That’s also my experience with OEM machines, I always end up cleaning the registry manually. Symantec is well aware of that, in my last report they told me to unhide everything and search for “Symantec” and “Norton” and delete folders/keys. Why don’t they fix it once and for all ?
