JAGO Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Hey guys . I uninstalled a few programs recently, but they're definitely not completely/properly uninstalled. I'm sure there was a program mentioned here somewhere that does cleanup after uninstallation? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corona Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hey, can you take a gander at my list (especially MS and anything marked in red) and tell me what I can toss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hey, can you take a gander at my list (especially MS) and tell me what I can toss? This is another install but I find it handier than the On-line Version but one is available. I don't keep it in the background.Just run it when I feel like it. Shows you all the old stuff and what isn't up-to-date.Auto links you to updates and such. Makes the job a lot easier. https://psi.secunia.com/ Personal Edition (PSI) - Free I just run it every now and then.It is simple and effective. http://secunia.com/software_inspector/ Secunia: Online Software Inspector davey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I tried the Secunia Personal Edition but it didn't even list those ancient MS products (Money, etc.) as insecure or 'end of life'. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAGO I use the Freeware "Revo Uninstaller" It first uses the software's uninstaller to uninstall the software and then it checks the computer for left over bit of junk. It then shows you what it has found and ask you if you want it deleted. I've been using it for several month and I really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a nice little useful program with good reviews at Cnet. I have downloaded it and going to use it soon.
