  1. Looking for a disk cleaner software to remove leftover files from uninstalled software.


    I’m running Win 10 LTSC 2019. Apart from uninstalling a few regular applications I’ve also recently uninstalled the Windows store after installing it through a method I found on github.

    This is Windows so as expected there are plenty of leftover files from uninstalled programs. Is there a cleaner program I can use to get rid of them and will it be able to remove files left by the windows store? I understand it’s most likely not programmed to deal with that but if the store is no longer installed I don’t see why it can’t detect leftover files the same way it detects files from other programs.

  2. Which cleaning software is the best?

    Try Download Revo Uninstaller 2.1.7 Revo Uninstaller achieves a total cleanup operation of all the software remnants. The steps it performs are the following: detects all the applications installed on your system, allowing you to choose the one to be removed; then, it offers users three uninstallation methods: Safe (very fast), Moderate (searches in the most common places for leftovers) and Advanced (the scan is thorough, but takes longer).

    Uninstalling software

    Hello there,

    This is Jo. The Norton antivirus program on my computer became non-functional so I tried to uninstall it. I uninstalled by going to control panel, add/remove programs, pointed to the Norton icons and hit delete. Now I have a file on C drive called: ccSetMgr.exe which will not go away. I tried many times to delete it but no success. I tried to reinstall Norton but the softwar recognises the remaining file and hence does not permit reinstallation. Please give me some help.

    How to remove double entries same program in uninstall software

    Hi some ideas here:
    How to Manually Remove Programs from the Windows Uninstall Program List

    Sometimes if a newer version is installed - and in particular if you install a newer version and choose to overwrite an existing folder for that program- this can happen.

    To clean up, I routinely uninstall programs using either Geek Uninstaller or Revo Uninstaller (free/pro), which run the program's own uninstaller (configured by its author) and then scan for leftover debris (overlooked by the author).

    Geek Uninstaller offers these options for convenience:
