CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
As the developer promises, ZSoft Uninstaller is indeed far superior to the native Windows program uninstaller. The freeware first runs the unwanted program's original uninstall option before cleaning up with its own technology. But for a more thorough uninstall, ZSoft Uninstaller offers an analyze function that you can use during the initial installation of programs to track exactly which files are being added to your system.
Later, when you want to uninstall a program, you can click the Analyzed Programs tab and rest assured that when you uninstall the program every associated file will be included. The search box for finding specific programs and the capability to get rid of temporary files are nice additions to this free program.
ZSoft Uninstaller works well, although it's not as robust as some other free uninstallers out there. Even though it may not have all the chrome of the competition, when it comes to getting its core task done--uninstalling unwanted apps--ZSoft Uninstaller is a good choice.
Publisher's description
From ZSoft Software :An uninstall utility that are superior than the build-in function in Microsoft Windows, and allows you to search, delete entry's from programs that is no longer installed, automatically find entry's from programs that are most likely already uninstalled, and hide entries from the list that you are never going to uninstall (Windows updates) making the list smaller and therefore easier to manage. It automatically find entry's that are considered crap-ware, export the current list to a TXT file, show more information than available though add/remove, find and delete temporary files and analyze an installation so it can be completely uninstalled.
Version 2.3.1.4 has important fix in the compare engine, updated Dutch language, updated Hungarian language, small additions to the 'View/Edit Info' window New filter: Windows Updates (only tested on my machine though, might not be fully effective), small fixes, exe packed with newer version of UPX and using more compression.

Version: ZSoft Uninstaller 2.3.1.4
Pros: Small app with low ram usage and easy install. Better than windows add/remove programs...
Cons: ...but not as good as CCleaner, which had to finish removing registry entries. ZSoft couldn't even properly uninstall itself, not even its own start menu listing. HijackThis, CCleaner and RegistryMechanic are better options.

Version: ZSoft Uninstaller 2.3.1.4
Pros: Programs I forgot were even there, this thing found them and got rid of them. I'm aware of the typical folder or two that can get left inside of the "Programs Folder" after uninstalling programs on the PC.
I always manually delete them. I can even clean my own registry to a certain extent, manually. But this program has done things I cannot do - making it worthwhile having.
