Revo Uninstaller question

Tony Vella · 02 Jun 2018

Revo Uninstaller used to be one of my favorite programs; the fact that it left no bits and pieces when uninstalling programs attracted me. However, every time my Geek Squad looks at my laptop the first thing they do, again and again, is uninstall Revo Uninstaller. They have never given me a reason.

My question: Is there some danger gossip about this program? Thanks in advance.

No but The Geek Squad may be a problem. I have used Revo for years..It works.

The danger lies in the mind of the user! One's understanding of what is safe to select to uninstall can be overridden by one's hasty desire to get rid of a problematic software that have wasted one's time troubleshooting.

Been there, done that.

Me too. I am always appalled at the very high prices Best Buy charges for basic cabling, but they keep on selling those items, so people must keep buying them. Maybe that same "make the suckers pay" mentality affects Geek Squad.

Programs like that cost them money. If everyone would use them, they would be without a job.

Revo Uninstaller Pro is my "go to" for uninstalling programs.

I think I shall reinstall Revo and tell them to leave it alone in the future. Thank you very much for all replies.
