-
- What is AppControl ?
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- AppControl is an uninstaller for Windows. But not one of the usual
- types of deinstallation utilities, which often delete files in the
- uninstall- process, that may be used by several applications, just
- because they did not check cross-links between files.
-
- The old Windows-problem is:
-
- "How can one track installations and make save deinstallations?"
-
- The new answer to this question is AppControl. It will be Your
- "installation eye" and "bugbuster". AppControl surveys every
- installation of Windows software, searches for cross links between files,
- catalogues them and makes the deinstallations, if You decide so.
- The "Safe Check" software technology is exclusively used in AppControl.
-
- The way AppControl works
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- When You want to keep control of what an installation procedure is doing
- to Your Windows - directories, you must keep an eye on:
-
- - created files and directories
- - modifications in "win.ini" and "system.ini"
- - created groups and icons in Windows' program-manager
-
- and that's exactly, what AppControl does for You. It logs any of
- these modifications for preparing a clean removing of the according
- application.
-
- But AppControl does even more ...
-
- "Safe Check" investigates all of Your drives (even network drives),
- searches for certain Windows - files and cross-checks them for
- connections between them and applications in Your system. These
- connections then are being logged into the "Safe Check" - database for
- further use.
-
- These checked file types are: DLLs, EXE-files and VBX-files.
- Files of that type, which are not EXCLUSIVELY used by an application You
- want to uninstall, will NOT be deleted by AppControl.
-
- To increase the uninstall safety even more, AppControl cross-checks
- the application-database for files which are being used by several
- applications and prevents the deletion of these critical files.
-
- That's what lifts AppControl above other deinstallation tools. It
- does not only clean up Your Windows system, it SAFELY cleans up Your
- system, even if the installation program is DOS-based.
-
- Words are spelled easy, but only the practice proofs the promises.
- We recommend to test the reliability of AppControl. That's the best
- promotion, because AppControl proofs itself to be one of the best.
-
- If You don't need fancy buttons or a blinding interface but a REALY
- reliable tool, then check out AppControl. And recommend it to other users
- if You like it (we're sure You will).
