Best bloatware remover for Windows Vista.

Anyone got any good ones? I hear Revo Uninstaller is one of the best. Any better ones?

 

The best bloat remover is a reload from OEM media. Faster too.

 

Clean install is the way to go, anything else has the potential to leave traces behind that may destabilize or slow down your system.

 

Revo U...is pretty awesome... Has always *cleaned up* the unwanted(s) for me very well.

I also run CCleaner, also nice and usable for system optimization & a cleaning tool that removes unwanted files, etc. from your system!

CCleaner is regularly updated too, so you can be sure to always have the most stable and trouble free version.

 

OEM re-installation for most manufactures will continue to have the bloatware since it'll just reinstall your computer back to the factory settings.

The best way would be to do a clean installation. There are various threads regarding clean installations in each of the brand specific forms.

To sum it up.

1. Obtain proper drivers from a driver file on your C drive or from manufacturers site.
2. Back up your activation certificate and PID using the ABR (activation back up and restore) from this site http://directedge.us/content/abr-activation-backup-and-restore
3. Obtain a Vista installation disc (this may be the hardest thing to do)
4. Reinstall w/o entering the product key but choose the correct version of windows you previously had.
5. Once you're in windows run the activation_restore.exe to reactivate.

Good luck!

 

He meant a clean install using the OS media if provided by the OEM, which would be a true clean install.

 

Clean install +1!

 

Well I have a autocleaning bat script but no one seems to be interested.
It is for removing every .log ,.tmp and other temp files in your systems.
Scheduled to run weekly.

 

Clean install is the single best way to ensure you have a system that is clean of everything except what the user decides to install.
