Windows uninstaller!
Dont see the point in installing software when windows inbuilt uninstaller does the job.
Windows Built-in, why use a 3rd party , when the one in Windows do its job properly.
To remove some of the leftovers that a program's included uninstaller leaves behind. I find this to be useful, as I install software just about every day, and end up uninstalling a lot of it. Doing a clean install of Windows from time to time, is not an option, as I've got hundreds of programs installed, and don't want to start from scratch.

I do it manually or use Ccleaner.

so Rollback RX or similar would help you a lot.

How do you cleanup leftovers with CCleaner?

I used it many years ago. But, I prefer to uninstall software. There are often times there is some software I want to remove, but there is some more recent software I've installed that I want to keep.

Revo Pro all day.
I have tried them all and settled on Revo Pro (Lifetime)
Ccleaner often finds nothing left behind after a uninstall with Revo
With some of the others Ccleaner finds a bunch of leftovers.

I use Soft Organizer, it is possible to trace the program's installation in order to obtain its complete removal.
But also in a standard way (without tracing) it does a good job finding a lot of leftovers.

Revo Uninstaller Pro and an older version of IObit Uninsaller portable. If there are still any leftovers, CCleaner will do the job, which rarely any leftovers.

Why do you use an older version of IObit Uninstaller? The latest version is available on PortableApps.

Latest versions silently install with no native portability and have features that otherwise exist in other software.
