Revo Uninstaller Moderate Mode: 1 Registry entry and 3 items Revo has an Advanced scan where the others are using the best mode they have. The default scan modes were used in each program. The programs used were Geek Uninstaller 1.0, Revo Uninstaller 1.93 and IOBit Uninstaller 2.2. The last option will do a simple Google search for the software name or company listed in the uninstaller’s details.īelow is a quick and simple test I ran on some pieces of freeware to see what leftovers a few portable uninstallers found. Right clicking any entry in the main window gives you the option to force a removal if the official uninstaller doesn’t work, remove the entry from the list if the software has already gone and it still shows up, navigate to the connected registry entry for the uninstaller, open the programs install folder and go to the programs website. These programs and others like them are especially designed to remove leftover registry information, files and folders after uninstalling a program which the Windows built-in tool doesn’t touch. The majority of users will no doubt know about third party uninstall programs like Revo Uninstaller and IObit Uninstaller, a couple of programs I keep in my USB toolkit.
It’s possibly expected that sometimes a file or two or a registry key is left behind, but sometimes there are literally hundreds or even thousands that remain which isn’t good news for an efficiently run system. This is especially true with system utilities and security software or software which installs a large amount of information and data. While this might not be a major problem at the time, it can cause potential issues down the line. Unfortunately, as is the case with just about all versions of Windows, quite often this doesn’t completely remove all traces of the files, folders and registry entries used by the software and these get left on your system. When you choose to uninstall the software, you simply use the programs dedicated shortcut icon or go through Add/Remove or Programs and Features in the Control Panel.
