Download Kav Registry Clean

Definitely disagree with implementing an auto registry clean command line parameter... Just doesn't make sense in my eyes, especially with the need to look at every entry that you delete from the registry. I can see it now.... Hundreds of new users crashing their systems because they used the auto registry clean command.
We would then probably have an ever increasing number of people coming on here to get help in repairing the damage "caused" by CCleaner, when in fact the damage was caused by unattended registry cleans.
When you agree with auto-deleting of files of various applications (like IE, Firefox with /AUTO), etc, I do not get why you cannot see the big advantange for administrators in auto registry cleaner for many comps. In any case - implement just "remove safe removable things".
We updated our private docker registry to the official Registry 2.0. This version can now delete docker images identified by a hashtag (see -an-image) but I still don't see a way to cleanup old images.
Anyway, you will be able to clean all untagged manifests in your registry, meaning that every overwritten tag won't leave old manifests and blobs in the registry. Every "unused" layer will be cleaned by the Registry Garbage Collectior.
You can have a look at the github PR. It's been merged and usable with distribution/registry, tag master as of 2018-02-23. It supersedes the docker/docker-registryproject with a new API design, focused around security and performance...
This is doable, although ugly. You need to be running (I think) registry 2.3 or greater, and have enabled deleting (REGISTRY_STORAGE_DELETE_ENABLED=True env var or equivalent). The example commands below assume a local filestore in /srv/docker-registry, but I'd be surprised if something equivalent couldn't be cooked up for other storage backends.
I was looking for the same functionality in the registry v2 api but only found soft deleting which is not what I was looking for. While researching I found the Github project delete-docker-registry-image which removes the actual files from the mounted volume via a bash script. Not tested it maybe useful...
** You can schedule those commands (above) using crontab as root. In the step 3) you must execute removing "-it", as result: docker exec $(docker ps -q) bin/registry garbage-collect /etc/docker/registry/config.yml -m`.
When deciding which registry cleaner to download and use, first consider what your actual needs are, as sometimes free platforms may only provide basic options, so if you need to use advanced tools you may find a paid platform is much more worthwhile. Additionally, free and budget software options can sometimes prove limited when it comes to the variety of tools available, while higher-end software can really cater for every need, so do ensure you have a good idea of which features you think you may require.
To test for the best registry cleaners we first set up an account with the relevant software platform, whether as a download or as an online service. We then tested the service to see how the software could be used for different purposes and in different situations. The aim was to push each software platform to see how useful its basic tools were and also how easy it was to get to grips with any more advanced tools.
Whether you're using a desktop or laptop, we take a close look at some of the best registry cleaners available for Windows. These programs are all designed to scan your computer, identify useless files, and help you remove them. This, in turn, will help improve long-term speed and performance.
CCleaner is an excellent option for those looking for a basic free registry cleaner. According to the company website, the program has been downloaded more than 2.5 billion times, which clearly shows how popular it is.
One of the main reasons for this popularity is the broad selection of tools that comes with the free version. These include full registry scanning and optimization features, and the beginner-friendly Easy Clean mode is excellent for those with little tech experience.
Although most registry cleaners tend to be quite beginner-friendly and easy to use, AVG TuneUp stands out as being specifically targeted at tech newbies. It offers a suite of performance optimization tools, with noteworthy features including an automatic maintenance optimizer, recommendations for actions that you should be taking, and a secure file shredder.
