Ashampoo
Uninstaller Premier
Modern
Windows® applications are very complicated "beasts". They include
large numbers of files that are often saved in many different
places, not just in the application's own program directory. In
addition to this they also have even larger numbers of settings,
sometimes hundreds, which they record in Windows' central database,
which is known as the Windows® Registry.
Ashampoo UnInstaller Platinum Suite works by creating two
"snapshots" of your system, one before you install an application
and another one directly afterwards. These snapshots record the
entire status of your computer system, including all registry
entries, the locations, dates, sizes and versions of all files and
the contents of all configuration files. After creating the second
snapshot the program then compares it with the first and records all
the differences in a special file called an "installation log file",
or "log file" for short. When you tell Ashampoo UnInstaller Platinum
Suite to uninstall the application it loads a previously created
this log file and uses the information it contains to restore
everything on your system to the way it was before you installed the
application.
When you tell Ashampoo UnInstaller Platinum Suite to uninstall the
application it loads this log file and uses the information it
contains to restore everything on your system to the way it was
before you installed the application.

Powerful new features
Multi Uninstaller
Now you can uninstall several programs in one easy process. Just select the installation records of all the programs you want to uninstall and click Remove.
Drag & Drop Desktop Uninstaller
Now you can get rid of programs fast by dragging them onto the UnInstaller icon on the desktop. Great for programs you were just testing.
Reinstaller
Changed your mind about removing a program? The Reinstaller restores the installation in seconds - you don't have to waste your time going through the entire complex installation procedure again.
Enhanced installer identification
You can now configure the UnInstall Watcher to identify installer programs other than setup.exe or install.exe. This includes a wildcard feature that automatically identifies update versions like program_name_0125.exe and program_name_0126.exe. The result: UnInstall Watcher now identifies many more installers automatically so that you don't forget to log the installation.
Windows® Services Manager
Many programs install Windows® "services" that load and run with Windows®, even when you aren't using the programs. This is bad enough normally but it's downright annoying if the service is still there after you've uninstalled the program! In addition to identifying new services the new Windows® Services Manager shows you all the services that are installed and running and lets you disable them.
Internet Explorer Add-Ons Manager
If you surf the Net a lot you know the problem - your browser gets increasingly loaded up with more and more add-ons and plug-ins, and it starts getting slower too. The new Internet Explorer Add-Ons manager shows you all your Internet Explorer plug-ins and add-ons and lets you activate, deactivate or remove them.
Start Menu Cleaner
Lots of programs leave orphaned entries and icons in the Windows® Start menu and on your desktop. This fully-configurable new feature seeks out and removes these entries.
