Revo Uninstaller (now Revo Uninstaller Pro) is not free anymore. However, I just downloaded 1.85 from Softpedia. Before I was using 1.83.

Available Revo Uninstaller 1.8.3 portable here: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revouninstaller.zip

This program saved my buns. I somehow managed to screw up a Pidgin uninstall (using WinXP's standard uninstaller), so that any attempt at a clean reinstallation was thwarted. Revo Uninstaller was able to clean up all the gunk left behind by Pidgin, so I could do a clean reinstall. Thanks to Revo Uninstaller, I was able to get rid of the Pidgin droppings!

This is one of the best programs I have found. I use it at home and at work. I love its Junk Files Cleaner which has freed up tons of disk space!

Definitely the best uninstaller I've come across.
Because of the deep scan you can even uninstall programs with corrupt uninstallers or no uninstallers at all.

I notice that this program has a hard time uninstalling Java Runtime 6. It runs the installer to modify the program instead of the uninstaller to get rid of it. I tried a few other programs like this and they all had the same problem. The only one I found that did the Java uninstall correctly is the uninstaller in Ccleaner.

I love this uninstaller, if you install a lot of different apps regularly this will take care of the leftover junk that application uninstallers "accidentally" leave behind. Its been version 1.60 for a while though, maybe just updated @ this site?

Welp, if it can remove all traces of AOL it must be good. How about Roxio and Adobe Reader? I manually tried to clean my registry of Roxio and stopped at around 50 entries.

Good program with lots of options. Does the job and does it well. Thumbs Up!

The key advantage of Revo is its "deep scan" to remove all traces of a program. Great for software that never quite uninstalls, such as almost any AOL software. This doesn't just recover space -- removing excess items from Windows' registry can also speed up your computer.

Hunter Mode is confusing until you move the transparent cross-hair icon over a window, minimized program, or tray icon and let go. A WEALTH of options become available that quickly and easily demystify and disengage unknown programs and windows.

Although this software cannot do multiple, simultaneous uninstalls like "Free Uninstaller," Revo is still a far better uninstall tool than any I've yet seen.

Looks like a good app, however, on my system it creates a folder in User/AppData. The folder is named "VSRevoGroup", and it contains some subfolders, all of them empty.

I've tried a few in the past and was simply not impressed. Revo is pretty cool though. It uses the default uninstaller for the unwanted application then runs deeper scans to find other traces. It also provides clear and detailed information about the scan results and gives the user control of what to do with the remaining traces

I've never warmed to the idea of a third party uninstaller.

The other features are an added bonus.
