A file can be referenced many times in the registry database for different functions. If the file is removed or becomes corrupted, the multiple references (pointers) will become invalid. RegDoctor will detect all the invalid references. This is why you may see same entries in the list of detected programs after a scan. 5. Can RegDoctor run automatically when I start my computer? Yes. Check Run at Start-up under Options in Settings. 6. When I run the scanning, my system locks up or the scanning does not complete. What can I do? It is recommended that you close down all the running applications when you run RegDoctor. Restart your computer. Close down all the running applications. Rerun RegDoctor. First, choose Quick Scan. 7. Some detected problems were not fixed. Why? RegDoctor will usually fix all the detected problems. RegDoctor’s smart algorithm may choose to leave the error in place because multiple programs may be using a shared tool and correcting this would impact some programs.
