Hello,

I am looking for a decent utility that deletes scattered DLL files when a uninstallation goes wrong. The only thing that I have found so far was a utility called "DLL Toys," but it looked a bit dated. I am not experiencing any issues now, but I think utility like this could be useful in the future. If any of you has any suggestions, I would appreciate it!

Thanks

I remember a long time ago using something called Drivesweeper i think from Norton that monitored installations and would totally remove all of it if you had to remove a program. But i don't think they do that anymore.

indeed, ccleaner is a good choice. I've been using it for quite a while already; home computer and in the office as well.

you can also try revo uninstaller

I second the motion on RevoUninstaller. Better then Your Uninstaller! imho (If only because it's free :p)
