AppRemover Description

AppRemover is a program with a name that pretty much sums up its functionality - it allows you to remove installed applications from your computer and requires minimal attendance. More specifically, it specializes in security tools such as antivirus and anti-spyware programs that usually leave files or registry entries behind after running their default uninstaller. For example, this kind of software can be of assistance if you want to install a new antivirus tool but need to remove the old one first, since the two are likely to have incompatibility issues that will eventually lead to Windows glitches.Portability advantagesInstallation is not necessary, which makes AppRemover portable. It means that you can drop the executable file to any part of the hard disk and just click it to run. You can also save it to a pen drive when you're on the go and directly launch it on any PC to uninstall security apps. Unlike most installers, this tool does not modify Windows registry settings or create extra files on the HDD, thus leaving it clean after removal. Simple and elegant interfaceThe GUI is based on a clean and intuitive window that contains limited settings. Once triggered, AppRemover automatically runs a scan on the computer to detect installed anti-malware applications. This may take a while, depending on the size of your hard drive. Select and remove security productsWhen the scanning operation is complete, you may view a list of all security tool names, along with their versions. Simply select the one you want to get rid of and let AppRemover take care of the rest. It is possible to choose multiple items at once to be uninstalled in a sequential order. There are no other noteworthy options provided by this program. Performance and conclusionThe software application has minimal impact on PC performance along with a good response time. No error dialogs were displayed throughout our evaluation and it did not freeze or crash; we have not encountered any problems. To sum it up, although AppRemover comes bundled with few features for uninstalling security components, it is straightforward and saves users a lot of time when they're looking to swiftly and safely replace old antivirus apps with new ones without inadvertently causing Windows stability issues.
