software that tracks changes made during install

(1/2) > >>

techidave:
I know this has been discussed before but am too tired to figure out what they call this type of software.  You know the kind that tells you the all the changes made during the install including the registry.

What type of software is this and what do you recommend to use?

I am trying to figure out why our Reader Rabbit Kindergarten (Bounce Down in Balloon Town) isn't working on XP SP3.  I am now reimaging with XP SP2 just to see if that makes a difference.

I have been on the mfg's website but The Learning Company has discontinued sales and support for their products as of Dec 2008.

Any help would be appreciated.

Some choices I read about (never used) a while ago are SystemSherlock and InstallWatch that either take before and after snapshots or give you logs. They don't seem to be very current as far as I know but nevertheless

Take a look under this topic, techidave...

Total uninstall, zsoft....

techidave:
thanks for the link Chris. Total Uninstall is looking pretty good.  I used one several years ago but cannot for the life of me remember what it was now.
