Bulk Crap Uninstaller – remove programs from your computer

Bulk Crap Uninstaller is a free uninstaller program designed to remove unwanted programs from your computer. The uninstaller program is used on a PC in order to remove all files, registry entries, and other data left after the application is uninstalled from the computer.

Quite often, after removing programs from a computer, unnecessary files, empty registry keys, etc., left over from previously removed programs, remain in the system. Regular built-in uninstallers do not always delete all data of applications being removed.

Therefore, users use specialized programs – uninstallers that control the process of removing software from a computer. One of the uninstallers is the free program BCUninstaller.

BCUninstaller verifies certificates in order to secure the computer, as malicious software can impersonate a legitimate application.

From the “Tools” menu, you can enter the Bulk Crap Uninstaller settings, clear the “Program Files” folder, open autoload, delete a directory, open system options.

After uninstalling the program, the progress of the task will be displayed in the “Uninstallation progress” window. The program has been removed from the computer, click the “Close” button.

The Bulk Crap Uninstaller program has a so-called “trust rating”. All detected elements are assigned a rating so that the user has an idea of ​​​​the degree of safety of deleting specific files or registry keys from a PC. Files marked “Very Good” or “Good” are more likely to be safely removed from your computer.

In any case, the user independently decides what to do in this case.

Before deleting the registry entries, in the “Remove leftovers” window, BC Uninstaller will offer to create a backup of the registry before proceeding with the deletion.
