"I have tried several Windows uninstallers before running across
Rosenthal UnInstall and found them slow and somewhat complicated in
the basic learning curve. With this little DOS program, I had it
installed and running in minutes with its short and to the point
documentation. No frills, no pretty graphics or pictures of your
disk, just pure uninstalling power in this package!
Rosenthal Uninstall not only located all of the files but efficiently
removed them in seconds!"

procedure. "

How to use Rosenthal History
First copy the files from your distribution diskette, CD-ROM or archive to
the root directory of your hard disk.
For example:
COPY A:*.* C:\
Rosenthal History shares information with Rosenthal UnInstall (tm) but can
be run independently as long as the UNINSTAL.DAT file is accessible.
Operation is totally automatic and no input is required of the user. When
used with Rosenthal UnInstall this RE_HIST.EXE is executed automatically
and its operation is completely transparent to the user. Whenever
Rosenthal UnInstall updates or purges files, it will also execute
Rosenthal History to maintain a running timeline history of additions
changes and deletions of your system files.
If you're less than meticulous about cleaning house and maintaining your
system using Rosenthal UnInstall, you should consider execution of
ROsenthal History by adding it to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file as well. That way
Rosenthal History will review your system files each time you start the
system. Rosenthal History is extremely fast and will only add updates to
your timeline (RE_HIST.DAT) file as required no matter how often it is
run.
To cause Rosenthal History to be updated each time you start your system,
use your ASCII editor to add the line "\RE_HIST" to your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file.
System administrators, network managers and technical support people find
adding Rosenthal UnInstall to a clients AUTOEXEC.BAT file this way
extremely helpful to resolve problems in the future. Users aren't always
aware of changes made to their system files until it becomes a problem.
The Rosenthal History timeline file RE_HIST.DAT can be a real life saver
and turn disaster into a simple and obvious correction. Installing
Rosenthal History on a client's system before there are problems can make
a consultant look like a real hero when a user needs him most.
As soon as Rosenthal UnInstall is executed it records its timeline as
plain text file RE_HIST.DAT. The indented outline format makes
understanding the information in your system files much simpler.
Comments begin with ";" and any changes are shown with a complete
description of what was done, the date and time and the file that was
changed. The indented outline format makes it easy to see exactly what has
happened and when. When a line of your system file gets modified,
Rosenthal History will show very clearly when and where, as well as how
the line looked originaly and what it was changed to. Clearly and well
commented.
As soon as you install Rosenthal History on your system, you take the
mystery out of your DOS and Windows system files. You can then use your
plain text editor to make changes you would never have attempted before
and keep your system free of junk and running smooth.
