Eldmannen Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Does anyone know any software which silently uninstalls junk software? You always have to help friends with their s*** computers, and even if they just bought it, its already preloaded with a s*** ton of junk. It can take hours to manually uninstall the junk (if even possible), with having to find it, determine if its junk, then manually confirm the uninstall one-by-one by clicking next, next, next. A very boring, tedious process. It should automatically and silently uninstall all toolbars, software of poor reputation, and commonly bundled useless junk.

Administrator Tarun Posted April 11, 2012 Administrator Share Posted April 11, 2012 Have you tried PC Decrapifier? Also, when I get computers like that, I just format and put the plain OS on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldmannen Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Have you tried PC Decrapifier? No, I have not tried it. Do you use it? Is it something you would recommend? Also, when I get computers like that, I just format and put the plain OS on. Friends probably woulnd't appreciate if I wiped everything. Also, when you buy a computer, Windows comes pre-loaded and you don't even get an installation CD! So they don't even have any Windows CD to use for install.

Administrator Tarun Posted April 11, 2012 Administrator Share Posted April 11, 2012 If it's Windows 7, any Windows 7 DVD would work. I've run PC Decrapifier a few times in the past. Not recently, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenknight Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I used PC Decrapifier on my present computer last fall, after I discovered the BIOS wouldn't accept anything but an OEM install. I was very happy with the way it worked. It will at least get rid of the "commonly bundled useless junk". It doesn't meet all your criteria, but I don't think any program in existence does.
