I just spent a day downloading and creating my own special USB Utility Flash Drive. I included a portable drive start menu found here on Snapfiles.
I then went to a computer with Steady State installed(same as Deep Freeze) to test the portable drive. I ran each and every tool, but before each tool was run I used Regshot then again after it was run. I found most portable tools left little in the registry but some left a bit. With this tool you can know what reg keys to clean up after you use your portable tool.
The only thing I was lost on at first was a few keys that I did not understand why they were created. They ended up being just temp keys that windows uses. I finally figured out that the keys I was questioning actually were written over by the next tool I tested.
In the end with this program and another reg scanner tool I tested when all was said and done I only had 29 keys added to the registry after running nearly 200 utilities.
