Everyone knows that today on the same Internet you can find a huge number of utilities for the most complete removal of any applications from computers, including those that are “wired” into Windows systems. However, not all such programs are equivalent in their capabilities. And that is why it is worthwhile to dwell separately on one of the most interesting applications of our time under the name Uninstall Tool. What kind of program is this, then briefly consider. In addition, we’ll try to find out why it attracts users so much, and why so many prefer it.
Uninstall Tool: what kind of program is it in a general sense?
Based on the name of the utility itself, its purpose, apparently, is clear to anyone, even a user who is completely inexperienced in computer technology.
This application is an uninstaller that can be used as an alternative tool for maximally cleaning the computer of previously installed applications, since the built-in tools of Windows systems cause legitimate complaints, if only because during the uninstallation process the selected applets leave a huge amount of garbage after them.
Some Uninstall Tool for uninstalling programs is compared with such giants as lObit Uninstaller and Revo Uninstaller, which is somewhat wrong. Indeed, in the main application there are quite a few tools for the most complete cleaning of the computer of residual elements that can be saved after uninstallation (registry entries, folders and files). However, few people know about some features of the Uninstall Tool application. What kind of program is this, from the point of view of its, so to speak, undocumented capabilities, we will further analyze.
Nuances of installing applications
The main difference between the Uninstall Tool application and similar utilities is that it has a rather unusual tool for installing programs that can be integrated into some context menus (for example, in Explorer). When you run the installation file, how do most users of Windows 7 and above do it? They simply run it as administrator, after which the installation process starts. What does the Uninstall Tool do? If you open the context menu on the installation file through RMB, you can see the installation point for the selected software using the "Installation Monitor". What is it for?
Only in order to track exactly what changes the original installer makes to the system configuration, which will subsequently facilitate removal without the need to run an in-depth search, as is done in other similar utilities.
Uninstall Tool: Uninstalled programs and applications in the queue for removal
Another reason why the application does not use search, is that after installing the software it monitors its status (activity). At the same time, in the list of applications installed on the computer, an icon with an eye image is displayed opposite to some programs. This indicates that this software was just installed using the above monitor.
Since it is not difficult to find and install the Uninstall Tool program in Russian, it will be quite simple to figure out its interface, allowing you to uninstall any other applications.
This process is no different from those offered by similar programs with a list of all remaining items to be cleaned. But when using the context menu on the marked item in the list, you can use the program change or even forced removal, which allows you to get rid of the so-called undeletable applets.
Among other things, the program has a tool for managing the launch of applications, akin to what constitutes a startup section of the system.
How to remove Uninstall Tool entirely?
So, what kind of program is this Uninstall Tool sorted out. Now it is necessary to say a few words about the removal of the utility itself, if its use in the system is no longer required. It goes without saying that the program cannot delete itself through its own interface. In this case, it is enough to use the standard section of programs and components, which is located in the "Control Panel", and perform the necessary procedure. If at the end of the installation it is indicated that some items need to be removed manually, restart the computer and get rid of the Uninstall Tool folder in the Program Files directory, and at the same time check if there are anything left in the hidden AppData directories (but usually this is not required).
