To sum it up, Revo Uninstaller Pro is compatible with 64-bit apps, unlike the free version of the program. It is designed to completely remove leftover files and acts like a file shredder.

One of the more interesting features of Revo is its Hunter Mode which offers some simple but adequate removal options. Shortly put, through Hunter Mode you can manage your installed and running programs from your desktop via their opened windows. When you activate the Hunter Mode, a small transparent icon of a target will show up on your desktop.
Also, keep in mind that when you uninstall a program from the Traced Programs tab, Revo will display leftover registry entries. However, some of the displayed items may not be created by the uninstalled program. That’s why Revo has an exclude list for such items. Via the Add and Remove buttons you can add or remove them. Through Reset Defaults you can remove all added and restore all removed items.
One more feature worth describing is Revo’s Evidence Remover. What is it for? When you delete permanently items from Windows Recycle Bin, those items are not physically erased. Evidence Remover will make sure that everything ever deleted from Windows’s Recycle Bin is eliminated, and there will be no chance to get the deleted data back. Revo will eradicate any folders and files previously deleted from your system but left physically on the hard disk. Shortly said, if you use Evidence Remover, you won’t be able to recover the data. Thus, by using this feature, you will make sure that your system remains confidential and that there is no file that may compromise you in any way.
