Uninstalled a program but its folders and registry keys are still there? The free HiBit Uninstaller can run a program’s own uninstaller, then scan for leftover files and registry entries so you can choose what to remove. It also includes forced removal and tools for managing other Windows cleanup tasks.
Review leftovers after removing a program
For a standard removal, HiBit Uninstaller starts the selected program’s uninstaller and then searches for related files and registry entries that remain. The results can be inspected before deletion, which gives you control over which detected items to remove.
When an application’s own uninstaller fails or leaves the program behind, Forced Uninstall provides another route for targeting stubborn software. The program can also process multiple selected applications at once, and its search function narrows the installed-program list.
Remove Store apps and browser extensions
HiBit Uninstaller handles Windows Store apps as well as installed desktop programs. It can also remove browser extensions.
Use the included cleanup and management tools
The extra utilities cover common maintenance tasks around installed software and Windows settings. They include:
- Monitoring software installations
- Controlling which apps and services launch at boot
- Managing Windows System Restore points
- Removing junk and unnecessary program files, invalid shortcuts, and empty folders
- Shredding sensitive files and fixing registry problems
