Select it with the mouse, then select the item "Delete the selected program" in the left column of the program. In the next window, confirm the deletion. The uninstallation process will begin, after its completion the program will scan the registry and computer directories for the presence of files of the deleted program.
Step 4
At the end of the scan, a message will appear with a list of found files, you will be asked to confirm their deletion. After that, all traces of the program will be removed from the computer. The program works very reliably and quickly, therefore it can be recommended as a replacement for the standard Windows uninstaller.
