I have a question about What to do about error messages during Windows startup:

I get this message when I start up. "Windows encountered an error accessing the system registry. Windows will restart and repair the system registry for you."

And the question is........?

I'm guessing that the original question was that they were getting this error message EVERY time they started up their computer, which is not right. I too am having this problem. I don't want windows to repair my system constantly. I want to know WHY it is NEEDING to do this EVERY SINGLE TIME........

I too have this problem--instigated by upgrading Quicken 4.0 to 6.0. Windows help says that the Windows Registry Checker will NOT repair the problem, if the problem is that a file is missing. I presume that means that Quicken uninstalled 4.0 prior to installing 6.0, and forgot to remove a file reference in the registry. I'll add to the wonder--I wonder how one can figure out which file is causing the problem, so that I can remove it manually from the registry? (Intut has beeen totally helpless to me, as usual.)

FYI--I fixed the problem. I downloaded Regmaid.exe from microsoft, and deleted everything it found. Worked great.

details, details, and more details.
dont you want a compertent answer.
instead of a slew of generic answers?
any changes made just before. click on ok get the details. the exact details spelled 
correctly, are your programs all up to date? do any tweaking lately? 
do you have antivirus, zone alarm?
perform desk maintenance, any file sharing programs, hardware changes, is everything 
running at startup? how long has it been going on ? use adaware, spybot search and 
destroy? online virus scans, any you running two antivirus programs at once? defrag? 
scandisk? did you just install something, do you delete programs iinstead of uninstallinjg? 
any other problems?
