General Support / Ignore List - Environment Variables
« on: March 08, 2012, 10:57:34 PM »
If I use Environment Variables in 'ignoreList.dat' is that suitable?
E.g. instead:
File C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch\
can I use this?:
File %WINDIR%\Prefetch\
Regards.

General Support / Re: Accidental "Branding ***" Uninstallation... Help please!
« on: May 31, 2011, 03:54:37 PM »
In «%userprofile%\LocalSettings\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer» you can find the file "brndlog.txt" OR "brndlog.log" with more info about "Branding" installation.
It isn't Microsoft Office about at all. It's Internet Explorer/Outlook Express about.
With "Brading" uninstall here:
- File added in «C:\Documents and Settings\<User Name>\LocalSettings\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer»: brndlog.bak
- Registry key deleted:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\>{60B49E34-C7CC-11D0-8953-00A0C90347FF}MICROS
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Branding
More info: hXXp://windowsxp.mvps.org/ie/ispunbrand.htm

Hi inselaffe, you can do what is here:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/rebuildhelp.htm
( .. ) Another suggestion would be at least providing some confirmation of uninstall - a dialog that defaults to "no" for example. ( ... )
Maybe a good idea, since some applications (their own unnistaller) don't ask anything and the uninstall process start without user choice - like PCHealth...

I don't know if it's too much to request a icon to copy to clipboard, the text inside the yellow windows, with the analyzed uninstall report, (instead to do Select All > Copy to the text editor).

Yeah working well the right click in post uninstall manager.
msi thing about: it is working very reliable without false positive, no problems at all. It seems that to uninstall msi installers an kind of algoritm is used by others unistallers app., to enlarge the results with msi installers; but it isn't a crucial issue at all.
ZSoft is working very well with the newest features definitely - a very good work!

1- I understood well the Badware finder issue now. Thanks a lot for your clarification.
2- Confirmed (grayed issue) that is fixed...
A- Right click option - it works well in in 'Registry Backups' window. However there aren't in 'Post Uninstaller Manager' window the right click delete menu yet!
B- The "In-program help" icon in "Post Uninstall Scanner" is good and useful for the users indeed.
BTW, I wanted to mean that the post uninstall feature is working well without false positives, very reliable. Congratulations for the hard work. (It seems to me that the MSI based installers need a special approach for leftovers searcher, since their installer structure is a bit of a mess; It isn't a pressing question when the version 2.5 is in releasing status though).

Questions:
1- Can you clarify what is Badware Finder? Badware Searcher search for badware; when I click in Badware Finder I have an empty windows!
2- Noticed that "Only return Whole-Word-Style matches" is sometimes grayed. Mainly after I select Tools>Badware>Badware Searcher, and I'm going to Functions>Post Uninstall Manager and select a program, the "Only return ... " is grayed.
Suggestions:
A- A right click option to Remove items in Post Uninstaller Manager window; same in Registry Backups window.
B- An "In-program help" icon in "Post Uninstall Scanner" with info like "Deleted files will be sent to Recycle Bin" and "A Backup (in Functions>Registry Backups) will be created for deleted registry items.
BTW, the post uninstall feature seems to be trusty.

Bugs / Re: Analyse doesn't end - like others before me
« on: October 26, 2009, 09:40:31 PM »It seems like it's going to be ignoring a huge chunk of the registry.
Maybe not:
Quote
When using the registry API in a 32-bit application, Wow6432Node acts like a symbolic link that loops back to the same 32-bit hive. It does not map into the 64-bit hive as you might think.
For example, walking the registry tree down to HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node in a 32-bit application loops back to HKLM\Software. The result is infinite recursion: HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Wow6432Node\Wow6432Node\..., etc.
If you want to view the 64-bit registry hive in 32-bit code you must open HKLM\Software using KEY_WOW64_64KEY. Do not try to open Wow6432Node; it will not work.
Source
To be compatible with 64 bits is needed ZU to ignore 'Wow6432Node' by default perhaps? If so do we have ZU to Vista/Seven 32bits and 64bits? It will be very good.
