BOYCOTT THIS GREEDY LYING COMPANY. AUTHOR THREATENED LAWSUIT IF YOU LEAVE BAD REVIEWS. PRODUCT DOESN'T DO WHAT THEY CLAIM. Use ZSOFT UNINSTALLER or REGSHOT (BOTH FREE) Does this program scan the entire registry? NO. It scans 2 out of 5 Registry Hives by default and another if you set it to do so, not to mention the MANY EXCLUDED KEYS. FACT. In the options menu under Monitored Programs-Scanning Profiles-Default-Registry Tab you'll see only: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_USERS Open Microsoft Registry Editor and you'll clearly see that there are 5 registry hives: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT HKEY_CURRENT_USER HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_USERS HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG Prior to version 5.x, were "MAJOR UPGRADES" Free? NO. Only until recently 5.x was the author forced to give people "One Free Year Maintenance Period". FACT. If you bought version 4.9.5 and version 5 came out a day later, you would have to buy the product again. Are people THAT WORK for this company (gmartau and Plumber) posting positive reviews, claiming litigation against anyone that leaves negative reviews and REMOVING USERS REVIEWS. YES. Read the other review for yourself. FACT. If you don't believe me, find a program with a 30 trial period, install the product with Total Uninstall with before and after snapshots, wait a couple of days, uninstall the 30 trial program with Total Uninstall and then Re-Install the program. You'll find that you have 28 - 29 days left on your trial. If it removed all registry traces then the second time you install the trial program you would have 30 days left on your trial.

LOL! This program will unregister itself, and you have to pay again if you have a firewall installed ! Now that's something new, I have to remember that one. Seriously, DO NOT pay for this lameware, you have better freebies than this never updated piece of slow s***.

Uh... WOW. Now someone is claiming that if you have a firewall installed, the author of Total Uninstall will make you pay multiple times to register it. What's next--the author sneaks into your home at night and steals your teeth? I do not work for the author of Total Uninstall. For some reason, posting positive reviews and discrediting false statements is enough for some people to think otherwise. As if a person can't simply dislike venomous nonsense and wish to respond. Without rehashing and re-rebutting all the nonsense written previously, consider this one random point that keeps coming up--the insistence that Total Uninstall skips the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (HKCR) "hive". A quick read of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256986 shows us that HKCR is not a hive at all; it is a subkey of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, which is scanned by Total Uninstall by default. This is just one small example of a fact pointed out that goes ignored by the people with a negativist agenda. Disproven hyperbole aside, this is one utility that does it all, does it best, and is continually improved. Now we have someone calling it "n00bware". Interesting. Actually, this person may have a point. I am very aware of the registry and file system structure, so maybe I will start monitoring it all manually, and undoing all changes made by applications and their installers manually as well. I'll spend 90 hours a week doing this, but at least I'll be "l33t".

Use ZSoft Uninstaller or Regshot (BOTH FREE) PRODUCT DOESN'T DO WHAT THEY CLAIM. GREEDY COMPANY. Does this program scan the entire registry? NO. Prior to version 4, it scanned the ENTIRE REGISTRY, but now it only scans 2 out of 5 Registry Hives by default and another if you set it to do so, not to mention the MANY EXCLUDED KEYS. FACT. In the options menu under Monitored Programs-Scanning Profiles-Default-Registry Tab you'll see only: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_USERS Prior to version 5.x, were "MAJOR UPGRADES" Free? NO. Only until recently 5.x was the author forced to give people "One Free Year Maintenance Period". FACT. If you bought version 4.9.5 and version 5 came out a day later, you would have to buy the product again. PROOF: Open Total Uninstall and Create a Before Snapshot, Then Open Microsoft Registry Editor (cmd->regedit) and Create a Key called "Test" Anywhere in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, HKEY_CURRENT_USERS or HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG, Reboot Computer, Create an After Snapshot in Total Uninstall and Compare. You won't find the key you added anywhere. Install a 30 day trial program with Total Uninstall with before and after snapshots, wait a couple of days, uninstall the 30 trial program with Total Uninstall and then RE-INSTALL the program. You'll find that you have 28 - 29 days left on your trial. If it really removed all registry traces then the second time you install the trial program you would have 30 days left on your trial. Plumber: EVERYONE knows that you work for the company. Every time someone says something the least bit critical, you're there to insist otherwise and direct them to the company forum where there comments are quietly deleted. You're "Paid Opinions" mean less than nothing.
