Software Installation Monitor
« on: May 06, 2012, 07:40 AM »
I have started this thread so that we can have one comprehensive, updated list of programs that are used to monitor software installations (file and/or registry) so that any program monitored could be uninstalled completely.

If possible, please provide the following information:

1. Name (obviously), version and weblink to its official homapage...
2. Method it uses (Snapshot or Live file monitoring)

Thanks!

Nzyme

Advanced Uninstaller PRO

Version: 10.62 (April 13, 2012)

Method: Currently snapshot, but I had used this program earlier and it supported live (real-time) file & registry monitoring. Upon checking with their tech team, they said that it does not support real-time monitoring...

Refer the attached image taken from their webpage which says that it supports real-time monitoring.

Revo Uninstaller Pro

Version: 2.5.8 (April 23 2012)

Method: Real-time monitoring

Free and Professional versions available.
It's important to note the free version doesn't do realtime monitoring but the brute force cleanup is excellent. It also doesn't handle 64-bit programs. This is IMO the gold standard. The price is also a little steep for me but if you wait for a sale you can get it significantly cheaper. Unfortunately I always seem to look at the wrong time.
