Leftover Windows registry entries.

As I said before NO program seems to be able to completely remove itself. Below are leftovers from a SSDR v2.5.1 unstall found by CCleaner. Don't understand why we need to use a third party program to keep our registry from becoming bloated.

    Because the registry is probably the worst idea M$ ever came up with for managing settings!

    This from a developer that has had to deal with the **** thing since it's inception.  

    I have even had computers slow down and get boggy because the registry became so over bloated.

    Just my 2c

    If you use Revo Uninstaller it gets rid of those leftovers. Works real well.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
