IObit Uninstaller Editor's Review

Do you want to clean up the mess left behind by other programs? With IObit Uninstaller 2.0 You can uninstall and remove any unwanted program and folder from your computer easier than ever. Where "Windows Add or Remove Programs" option fails, IObit Uninstaller works and does the dirty job.

IObit Uninstaller comes with a simple and compact interface. Most part is occupied by a list of your (installed) programs, followed by size and the installation date of each. In the left-hand side interface you can find a menu that will help you change what's listed: All Programs, Toolbars, Recently Installed, Large Programs, Rarely Used, and Windows Updates. At the top of the interface you'll find the commands to: Uninstall, Forced Uninstall Batch Uninstall and the Search option.

You can remove programs that don't want to be uninstalled in the old fashioned way, or you can find and remove hidden entries in the registry catalog, left over by already uninstalled programs. For these you can either use the "Powerful Scan" option that gives you a deeper and more secure scan, especially for the leftover items in the Registry catalog or search the program's name in "Forced Uninstall" section and remove it directly from the search results. In this way IObit Uninstaller guarantees you that the program has been completely removed from your system.

With IObit Uninstaller 2.0 you can remove multiple programs with just one click by using the "Batch Uninstall" option. The efficiency of this app goes even further giving the user the option to remove the so annoying toolbars almost instantly. You don't have to bother anymore with your browser's hidden add-on modules in order to remove any toolbar from there. All these tasks can be performed automatically by IObit Uninstaller from its interface.

Pluses: Freeware; you can uninstall more programs at once (one after another); thorough scan for leftovers;

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: IObit Uninstaller is a powerful uninstaller that definitely worth using over the build-in Windows uninstaller. We liked it.
