How about multiple versions of a program? Can I uninstall old Office versions without damaging the current one? I've got Revo, but haven't put it on my current PC. I like it, but never gave it its head, harking back to a sad experience I had with Norton several years ago.

A tech friend of mine found this program removed pieces that he had not been able to remove with the standard Windows uninstaller, and it fixed the sluggish performance problem he was having. I have used Revo Uninstaller for a number of years, and always with good effects.

I think you will find that it does a very thorough job.

I am wondering if this program does a better job than just the standard Windows UnInstaller? I'm not sure windows does as complete a job as this describes. What is your experience?
