    I agree with Abhay, unless you have a specific problem leave the registry alone it shouldn't have any impact on you 9i installs.

    I have to clean up a regestry to complete uninstall of Oracle 7i.
    In the past if I don't clean the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->ORACLE
    I had a lot of problems..... May be because it was a server computer... not client....
    any way.... some advices will be good.
    Thanx.

    I don't have a permission and possibility for that) this is first.
    Second: cleaning of regestry may be better than reinstall OS.
    and I have about 30 client)) to much work)

    It may cause problem if you have same name for ORACLE_HOME.

    i dont think you will be interested to keep the same name of Oracle_Home for 9.x install.

    If you dont want to see 7.x keys then delete those keys.

    It would be under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/HOME%

    delete the key HOME% ( % may be any valid number ) that contain all information pertaing to 7.x

    And possibly you may have to change DEFAULT HOME value to new home name ( ALL_HOMES ).

    Abhay.

    When I've done this previously (when feeling brave) I simply removed the whole HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->ORACLE branch but if you have other Oracle products installed then obviously this will cause problems.

    I'm looking for advice, if you cannot provide it or don't want to- just say nothing.
    Best regards.
