You cant just delete temp files as they may be in use. I wouldn't touch the registry with any program it would end up messing it up.
Shortcuts isn't a problem.0 -
Dump it and download and use CCleaner for the general cleanup, and Malwarebytes for the spyware scan.0

Eusing will sort your registry outIt's taken me years of experience to get this cynical0

Glary is good - never had any problems.
You could also try iObit Advanced Systemcare.
I have been using both for 18+ months with no problems.0 -
the thing to remember with all cleaners, av progs, anti malware progs, etc., is that NO SINGLE ONE will catch every issue. You need to run a couple to ensure a decent cleanout.
Example....Glary often picks up registry issues that CCleaner misses, and CCleaner's cleaner will get rid of more carp than Glary.....solution - run them both
......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple

Glary Utilites seems to resemble TuneUp Utilites very closely:think:.
I have used TuneUp for donkeys years and its one of the best Utility packs going and has never caused any problems whatsoever.0
