Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

2.6

GPA, above 35 of the 96 other desktop utilities we grade

Revo Uninstaller removes Windows programs and then scans for files and registry entries the standard uninstaller left behind. It also handles Windows Store apps and browser extensions, and keeps backups so a removal can be undone. A free edition and a paid Pro edition are sold, plus portable versions.

To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Revo Uninstaller, taken from its own pages and our grades.

A free edition exists, but its page doesn't list what it drops compared with Pro, and Pro updates last only one or two years.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

Nothing Revo Uninstaller does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 5 things listed below take a company.

It costs $24.95, paid once.

What you could not

  • Deleting system files without breaking anything.
  • A file manager working directly on your disk.
  • A real app for Windows. Something home-made would be a web page.
  • It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
  • The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

What this rests on. Revo Uninstaller’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
