    How to completely uninstall any software with leftovers ?


    I want to uninstall any software completely like it was never installed in the first place . I don't want to do the stuffs manually . Previously I always used the default uninstaller that comes with the softwares . After uninstalling sometimes the folder remains there . So I deleted those folders later . But I found even though I've uninstalled those softwares there are leftovers . After searching and reading some articles , I found I've to clear registry and temp files . I don't want to do those manually . Is there any one click solution that will uninstall any software , delete related folders and files , will clear its temp folders and files , also will clear registry and will clear all the stuffs of the previous softwares that I have uninstalled before too ? Is there any software for it ? I heard about revo and iobit uninstaller but don't know which one works better . It will be better if there's a free and open source software for it .

    How to supress App notifications switch after software uninstall


    Hi, I suggest this:
    1. reinstall Seer.
    2. uninstall it with either
    Revo uninstaller
    or
    Geek uninstaller
    (you'll need to download and install these- free)
    Using whichever of those you prefer (I like Geek uninstaller and routinely use it for straightforward uninstalls) uninstall Seer. They will then perform a scan for leftovers.

    Hopefully that will clean up the notification list.

    Easier than try to search the registry and find program leftovers!

    You may be one of the few who find Win 10 straightforward- I'd have thought it a shock coming from a Mac..

    Please help me remove a leftover of an uninstalled app

    Please help me remove this leftover "item/registry junk" or whatever it is, from the "How do you want to open this file?" apps list. I uninstalled that software, but it is still in the list for opening my BDMV, M2TS, MPLS files. The wierd "leftover" just shows a location of an already uninstalled video player. I have marked the wierd phenomenon.

    Thank you.
    (I apologize, but I really dont know how else to explain. On another forum people had "problems" understanding longer sentences...I hope that will not be the case here too.)

    how to completely uninstall a software


    Revo uninstaller as suggested to you is more than adequate.

    A month or so ago, I decided to uninstall Chrome. It refused to uninstall using Programs and Features method.
    I used Revo and not only it uninstalled promptly , it also asked if I wanted to remove everything from the registry.
    I consented and it showed me where they were in the registry with BOLD prints, and I removed all the remnants left in the registry.
    A wonderful program to have.
