I believe you're correct. That was one of MS goofs. They bought out the
company developing One Care.
It is no longer available and has been replaced by Microsoft Security

Registry cleaners are nothing but disasters.

The registry tool I use, JV Powertools, saves the removal items in reg

Only in the hands of those that think they're a cure-all, and don't have
the knowledge to know how to properly use them.
