    I DOWNLOADED this SOFTWARE FROM TUCOWS.COM FOR THE TRIAL VERSION. this PROGRAM SCREWED MY COMPUTER UP. IT DELETED ALL OF MY FILES THAT AREN'T PROGRAMS. All my files that were in folders are gone! I RUN A BUSINESS ON MY COMPUTER AND I USED this SOFTWARE TO HELP MY COMPUTER. NOT HARM IT. i need to fix my registry... executables wont load... any suggestions?

    Welcome to Majorgeeks. Someone here should be able to fix your major issue.!

    Even thought the title says winxp manager, I will assume you are running xp.

    Have you tried running System Restore to a point just before you ran this program?

    Did you make a backup before you let the program delete entries?
    Have you tried System Restore?
    Have you contacted the company?

    Was there an option in the program itself to create a backup that you can now 'restore'?
    If so....try it.
    If not......oh man.

    This is a long shot....but cross your fingers.
    Through Windows Explorer>C: >Program files
    See if the WinXP Manager folder is (Hopefully):confused: still there.
    If so, see if the backup is in that folder.

    it was there, but i couldnt get the thing. I have error killer that came with it i think and it has registry backups... but when i click on it it says i cant import it that i dont have the registry editor.

    All I can think of at this point is to d/l and install WinXP Manager again .....maybe what you need to use the backup will be part of it and you can restore those entries
    Otherwise, someone with more knowledge of the registry will have to help you as I am not qualified.
    Hang in there!
