Hi.
I'd love to see a full featured uninstall function in CCleaner, similar to Revo and others.
Like many people, for a long time I thought CCleaner did some clean up after the program's/windows' uninstaller ran...
Other than that, I'm perfectly happy with CCleaner. Kudos to you all.
.... I know you guys probably get this a lot, but I thought I'd just throw my vote out there....
Perhaps you may want to read here. CCleaner already offers an uninstall programs option

I believe OP wants advanced scanning features, such as leftover detection.

Ah yes, I see that now after a re-read ![:)]()

Free RevoUninstaller already does a good job, BUT ONLY on 32 bit systems.
The Professional RevoUninstaller has more options which include creating Log files during installation to improve subsequent removal,
AND this can deal with 64 bit systems.
CCleaner has a focus on removing junk and as such does not create log files.
The existing UnInstall feature is a convenient and fast short cut to the standard Windows Uninstall code,
and probably adds much less than 1% to the CCleaner code.
I would guess that CCleaner would be increased by perhaps 1000% if it was to incorporate a fully effective Revo Look-a-Like.
I vote against making CCleaner so much fatter.
I vote against tarnishing CCleaner's reputation with the inclusion of sub-standard Revo type capabilities.
It may be feasible for Piriform to produce a product that competes with Revo,
and that will involve deciding whether to charge for a version that exceeds Professional Revo.
