Defragging the registry will not save any space, because defragging is just a rearrangement, it does not compress or clean up. For the same reason it cannot possibly harm your PC.

A very good and safe way to clean one's registry is to use the Registry component of Piriform's CCleaner.  Then to defrag the registry I use Macecraft's jv16 Powertools.  Defragging the registry can save a few kilobits of data - making the computer seem just a tad bit quicker.  Also a system defrag is a good idea too.

NO! Do NOT mess with your registry anything that automatically does ANYTHING to the registry that is not directly from Microsoft I would deem as more a nuisance than an angel. It MAY seem to benefit you first run, but after awhile when your computer is failing to find anything you will have lots of problems upon continual usage of such tools. NEVER run automated Registry defrag/cleaners or anything, especially without the knowledge to WATCH what it is doing.

Well registry cleaners pose some errors but registry defragmenters or compressors is a useful utility to have. They cleans the entries without making bigger loopholes which saves the data.
