But truth is leftover keys really shouldn't hurt your system the least little bit, and there's probably a WHOLE BUNCH more residual leftover keys you don't notice that are still there not hurting your system.
If it bothers you knowing it's there, I suppose yeah delete it but it really wouldn't be helping anything at all if you get rid of them unless they're causing a cosmetic problem like it's still in add/remove programs because of that but if it isn't causing anything noticeable and you just want to delete it for no real reason, If not just for not wasting my time doing that and doing something a bit more productive with my life even if in the end we're all just wasting our lives away anyways. Still probably something funner you could be doing.
registry is extremely efficient, extra keys or entries dont make it any slower
and messing with keys/values/data that is used can easily mess up other things
even using windows or steam uninstall will not remove all the extra registry entries
Many say these things are snake oil and make claims that don't pan out. They actually don't improve speed or performance or anything but there is like a palliative effect that it might make you feel better. I run one occasionally just to see what it picks up. Doesn't harm but it doesn't do much else either.
there are commands to remove keys using .reg backup files, but removing stuff thats needed can make windows not bootable and/or lock it up.
if you really want the old game stuffs removed from registry, if you dont know what you are doing, its safer to reinstall windows

(do this a few times until nothing appears there anymore)
(do this a few times until nothing appears there anymore)
run in regular mode first, hook up and clean everything ..
then run as well in admin mode afterwards, hook up and clean everything again !!
defrag & optimize all of your disks and drives ..
I even HIGHLY recommend you do a complete fresh and clean install of your system, if you have run it for years ... afterwards your machine is going to run like on its first day ...
Less is always more .. especially in IT

Good Luck !!
Leave them alone.
While it's true that in the past there was a reason to use registry cleaning this point hasn't been valid for many years now.
You get zero performance benefits from cleaning out registry on modern hardware, and on the contrary risk breaking stuff.
Microsoft themselves recommend against cleaning out registry.
The "regular" cleaning features in ccleaner and apps like it are fine though.
please, stop using these apps. its not 2001 anymore.
its funny that someone ask 1 specific thing and some random tells them to blow up their whole stuff.. internet..
At work a lot of the software we write for internal use relies heavily on registry keys. And I've had to do plenty of registry work over the years to configure servers, like disabling TLS1.0 and 1.1 on our older web servers. The point is, I'm in there a lot for specific purposes. And cleaning up the registry isn't any sort of concern.
And the number of times I've legitimately needed to do anything in the registry on my personal machine in the last decade I can count on one hand. And it has nothing to do with cleaning out orphaned settings. Do it if you want, but don't kid yourself that it's anything more than OCD.
and changing file associations, windows icons, run recent list, and startup items/commands
many games use windows registry for setting, or game saves, since that is way faster than data written to drives
but changing something you are unsure of or an incorrect setting can completely break windows and make it unbootable or unresponsive
Ignore the fools who say registry cleaner utilities are unnecessary or harmful.
Though using an uninstaller tool like Revo or BCU that keeps that stuff from accumulating in the first place is better.
I don't condemn anyone who does or doesn't use one though--as long as you're aware of any potential risks. Actually, I find it more risky to manually delete those things. Two false moves and oops!
