I like how ya mentioned CCleaner and JKDefrag and Starter at the top, Ive had those for years and they are the best of their kind. I would add RegSeeker for registry cleaning. Comodo Reg Cleaner has seemed to work so far and it finds different stuff. DTaskManager and RegScanner and Regshot and MRUBlaster are all on the desktop ;) Good Tweaking to you!

However, when I try to "restore" it does not remove these added entries, which is a bug.

I should have run 'RegShot' before and after (Yes, I did do a registry backup!), to see which registry keys were changed - The lack of an actual 'Undo' file makes me think that all changes are fairly standard registry changes - - I REALLY don't like programs when I don't know what's happening, or have any control over what's changed! If I run the 'Undo', will I actually revert to 'Factory Default' settings, or my own settings, pre-Thoosje? Still, it may really improve average users' computers, does no visible harm, and keeping casual users out of their registry is a Good Thing! I've had to fix too many friends & coworkers mistakes, over the years. I tried it on one computer, and didn’t notice anything spectacular, pro or con, but I’ve already ‘Tweaked’ all of my computers.

Yes those tweaks improve performance... But not to degree noticeable by human being.
