Step 1: Open Revo Uninstaller Free
Once Revo Uninstaller Free is installed, open the program. You will see a list of programs installed on your PC.
Step 2: Select The Program You Want To Remove
Click on the program you want to uninstall. In the video example, we use Balena Etcher.
Step 3: Start The Uninstall
Click uninstall and allow Revo to run the normal uninstall process first. Follow the on screen prompts until the main program has been removed.
Step 4: Scan For Leftovers
After the normal uninstall has finished, Revo will offer to scan for leftover files, folders and registry entries. Run the scan so Revo can find anything Windows would normally leave behind.
Step 5: Remove The Leftovers
Review the items Revo finds, then remove the leftover entries and files you are happy to delete. This helps give the PC a cleaner uninstall than using Windows alone.
Step 6: Restart Your PC
Once finished, restart your PC if requested. This is especially useful if you removed software that was causing issues, conflicts or driver problems.
Why We Recommend Revo Uninstaller Free
Windows can remove the main program, but it often leaves behind extra files, folders and registry entries. Revo Uninstaller Free gives you a cleaner way to remove unwanted software and can be very useful when trying to fix software related problems on a gaming PC.
