The Tenebril Uninstaller allows you to add and remove software from your computer with confidence, knowing that lost files and other remnants of old software will not be left behind and cannot clutter your computer. The Uninstaller cleans up after software that is running on your computer, removing temporary files, cookies and cache elements.

Editor's review of Tenebril Uninstaller

• "Tenebril Uninstaller"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Tenebril Uninstaller 1.2

When it comes to removing programs with corrupted uninstall information, Tenebril Uninstaller is far more effective than the standard Windows Add or Remove Programs dialog. To do the trick, it makes a snapshot of your system, including files and the Registry, before and after you install a program. If you need to delete a program without an uninstaller, Tenebril Uninstaller simply compares the two snapshots and rolls back the changes. As a bonus, you get bundled several tools for controlling Windows start-up and removing junk Registry keys, cookies, and temporary files. The interface is a bit jumbled, with the uninstall feature mixed in with all the other tools, but the strong Web-based manual helps you find your bearings. Most of all, since Registry problems often stem from poor installation practices, we like the idea of combining an uninstaller and a Registry cleaner. Well played, Tenebril.

  "Hidden spyware program"

  by venn on July 12, 2005

  Pros: It got rid of one program I couldn't otherwise figure out how to get off my computer because it wasn't listed in the Control Panel's "Add/Remove Program" screen and wouldn't give me access to manually delete.

  Cons: I only downloaded the trial version because that's all I needed to delete the program I wanted to, but I have now found out Tenebril has left spyware on my computer. So now I've tried to hunt down a anti-spyware program because Adware and Spybot don't detect them, but I see they are there with the trail version of SpyBlocs. You don't have to take my word for it - you can look it up on the 2-spyware site and search for "keycorder".

  I registered with download.com to give this one review just because I saw no one rated it and I see thousands of people have downloaded it and just hope to warn the unknowing others.

  "Do Not Buy Anything From This Company!"

  by n0lxx on February 16, 2007

  Cons: This company uses Digital River to download bought products. If the download fails or doesn't work, you can not get to it again to re-download it.
