Revo Uninstaller is an uninstaller for Microsoft Windows.[3] It uninstalls programs and additionally removes any files and Windows registry entries left behind by the program's uninstaller or by the Windows uninstall function.
Features
Revo Uninstaller first runs the selected program's built-in uninstaller, then searches and removes associated files and registry entries that the uninstaller may not have removed from the user's drive.
Revo Uninstaller also cleans out:
- Files in the temporary folder
- Entries in the Windows start-up applications folder
- Browser history and cache of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and Netscape
- The recently opened file list in Microsoft Office applications
Revo Uninstaller can also irrecoverably delete files.
A portable version is available that can be run without installing onto or modifying the system, in particular from external storage media such as USB and network drives.
The freeware version of Revo Uninstaller does not find or uninstall 64-bit applications.[4][5][6]
