For all you know the registry cleaner might be removing other valid
entries but the applications might just be silently recreating them when
needed. In this case you, or the registry cleaner, probably did not
have the needed permission to remove the key. Don't put too much faith
in these cleaners, they can and do at times cause problems. Your post
is a prime example, you didn't know what the key was for yet you trusted
the findings of the registry cleaner, one of those days you might regret
putting blind faith in these cleaners.
