Version: Revo Uninstaller 1.40
"Big improvement in this version."
Pros: Revo uninstaller has a nice interface with large icons and names of installed programs. Also this uninstaller loads installed programs very fast, as fast as you can blink your eye. It now makes a restore point before uninstalling a program, so all left over files of an uninstalled program are sent to the recycle bin.
Click the name of the program to be uninstalled, and click uninstall the selected application. Now it says are you sure you want to uninstall the selected application click yes.
Now it shows four uninstall modes, built in run only applications uninstaller with no additional scanning. Safe mode performs additional scans in the registry, and the hard drive for left over items that are safe to delete this is the fastest mode. And it has two other modes moderate, and advanced this advanced mode is the slowest.
On tools it has a startup manager to enable or disable applications, from starting on windows startup. Also on tools it has windows tools, that gives a lot of information about your computer. And has tracks cleaner that supports Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and Netscape browsers.

Version: Revo Uninstaller 1.40
"Great uninstaller with extra features."
Pros: Revo uninstaller has a nice and easy to use interface, it shows icons and names of all installed programs. Just click on a program to uninstall now it will show a pop up window. And ask are you sure that you want to uninstall the selected program click yes. Then it will scan before the uninstall click yes again.
Next you have to click scan after after uninstall, and this scan will find left over registry keys and files of the uninstalled program. After it finds all of the left over registry keys and files, click select all and click delete and that completes the uninstall.
The extra features it has are an auto run manager, windows tools, junk files cleaner. And tracks cleaner it supports internet explorer, firefox, opera and netscape browsers, to clean up history, temporary internet files, cookies, address bar history, and index.dat files. This uninstaller can load faster by clicking on options, then click uninstaller and check the box for enable fast loading mode. And it will show system updates, if you check the box for show system updates.

Version: Revo Uninstaller 1.40
Pros: It did what I needed, and didn't cause me any problems at all. I needed an uninstall app to kill McAfee on my new computer after the removal tool failed to get it all. I tried others, Smarty forced another system restore, so did Your Uninstaller. McAfee was back but so was my system thru system restore. I read these great reviews and in a panic, installed it. It easily killed McAfee without removing anything but McAfee. what a nice, complete program, and free to!
Cons: i'd be a fool to post any cons. This is a program that can be trusted. Thanks a million VS Revo Group.

Version: Revo Uninstaller 1.40
"An excellent free application! 4.5 stars is my rating!"
Pros: This free utility has all the features found in paid software uninstall programs plus some extra features. Like the paid applications, it shows all installed programs with an icon in it's user friendly GUI. It does a good job at cleaning up all files, folders and registry keys left behind by the uninstalled program. It's hunter mode and options like deleting from auto start are excellent features. This program gives the user a chance to look and make sure about shared registry keys (prior to cleaning) that could damage other programs. The auto start manager and junk file cleaner are nice extras not normally found in this type utility. It's compatible with "XP" and "Vista" and the price can't be beat.
Cons: Not a con but a reminder to double check any shared registry keys prior to clean up. If there are any doubts, leave it.
