    For the life of me, I can not remember what the different entry colors mean. What is the difference between the red and green? I tried searching the program for info, but I couldn't find anything. Thanks.

    Pretty sure red means there is no association with the entry while the green is more a 'cautionary'.

    I've been using the program for years and have removed just about every single green entry and never had a problem.

    I had always thought that Green was reasonably "safe" to remove and Red was not.

    As the colored text implies, green entries are for the most part File or path does not exist while red entries are Unused.

    With versions prior to 1.52, I had always removed everything, red and green alike, without any problems. I found there were too many bugs in version 1.52 and won't use it, and I have yet to check out the latest, version 1.55

    Thanks for the info. The last time I ran the program, I deleted everything, but that's been awhile ago. I had a friend that was curious.
