On a computer that is running Windows Server 2003 or a later version, a storage device that is connected by using a fiber channel or by using the iSCSI protocol may be connected for only a short time. When a storage device is connected, Windows creates registry information for the device. Over time, the registry may contain many entries for devices that will never be used again. This utility can be used to remove this information from the registry.Supported Operating Systems
