ZSoft Uninstaller
What it is
ZSoft Uninstaller is a free Windows utility for removing programs and managing installation records. It can replace the Add/Remove applet with a searchable installed-program list that shows additional information and can hide entries such as drivers or Windows Updates. The utility analyzes an installation before and after setup, including setups interrupted by a reboot, to support more complete removal. After uninstalling, it searches for leftovers, temporary files, and empty folders. A startup manager handles programs launched with Windows, and forced uninstall is supported. The portable version provides an alternative way to run it. Version 2.5 automatically backs up installation logs in a LogBackups folder and can remove entries for software no longer installed. The main program lists 14 languages. The maker says it tested the utility only on Windows XP and reports use on several older Windows versions. Version 1.7 is no longer developed. Donations are requested, with no purchase price stated.
