Description
You run the built-in uninstaller to the end and still find leftover files on disk, stray keys in the registry, and after a few download managers you are not sure which bundled extras came along. Ashampoo UnInstaller FREE works differently: it logs every file and registry change while a program installs, then reverses the whole log on removal, so trying new software no longer risks leaving Windows dirty.
Programs it never watched can be cleaned too, because the built-in deep cleaning hunts down what the vendor uninstaller missed, and extra programs delivered through nested setups are detected and removed. Windows own apps can be uninstalled from the same list with a ratings overview so you can tell which are worth keeping. Beyond removal it bundles maintenance tools for browsing traces, startup entries, services, file associations and secure deletion. The vendor states the FREE edition stays free to use forever; the current version is 4.5 and it runs on Windows only.
Install monitoring with log based removal: records all file and registry changes made during setup and undoes them cleanly later
Deep cleaning: finds leftover files and registry entries even for programs that were not monitored
Nested setup detection: spots and fully removes bundled installers delivered through downloaders
Remove Windows apps: uninstalls preinstalled apps and shows ratings to help you decide
Internet Cleaner: wipes browsing traces to free space and protect privacy
Startup and service tuning: Startup Tuner manages autostart entries and Service Manager handles Windows services for faster boots
File Associator and File Wiper: manage file type associations and permanently erase sensitive data
