The “registry” in which Windows and all applications store information can begin to hold data that is no longer valid. this can occur for many reasons and does occur through normal use.

Often such invalid links occur because uninstalled programs do not completely remove their registry entries. Whether the uninstall process fails or the uninstaller does not correctly remove all the entries. This can occur due to programs not being correctly uninstalled by the user, due to a system failure, or applications have been relocated without uninstalling and reinstalling them. This invalid data eventually begins to clutter the system registry, slowing Windows down and causing other possible problems.

The Windows registry is simply a database which contains information on the Windows operating system and third party applications. This information is read at start up and includes system variables which tell Windows and other programs exactly how to operate. If this information is corrupted in any way you will notice performance issues and can experience system error messages such as but not limited to run time, script and start up errors.

If you are not experienced with the Windows registry it is not recommended yo attempt to alter any information contained within the Windows registry. Incorrectly editing the registry can result in system boot failure or program failures.

I recommended reviewing any Microsoft documentation on the Windows registry for your particular operating system version if you plan to manually edit any entries. These articles can be informative and give a better understanding of how the registry works. For information on your particular version of Windows please visit the Microsoft knowledge base at the Microsoft knowledgebase.
