Whenever a device is attached to your computer, it leaves behind an entry in the Windows Device Manager, and removing these one by one is a time-consuming process.

Device Cleanup Tool is a handy application that can make this task a lot easier, as it enables you to select and delete multiple device entries at once. It also lets you know when the device was last used to help you ensure the right ones are removed.

If you find yourself in need of a program that allows you to clean up your device list, it is likely that you will be able to get the hang of Device Cleanup Tool in no time at all. The application features a very simple layout, and its functions are more or less self-explanatory.

It is worth noting that Administrator privileges are necessary if you wish to remove any devices, as an error message will be displayed otherwise. However, you can easily restart the application in Administrator mode from the File menu.

Once the application is launched, it displays all the devices that are registered on your system but are currently not present. The program also lets you know when the device was last used, which should help you figure out if it can be removed safely.

Device Cleanup Tool allows you to delete multiple entries at once, thus making it much easier to perform a thorough cleanup.

Any device that is removed from the list will be detected as new when it is attached to your computer again, so reinstalling them should not be too difficult. However, you can also create a System Restore point before removing any items by accessing the File menu.

Device Cleanup Tool can be deployed on your system with very little effort, as you only need to run one of the unarchived executable files to launch the utility. No installation is required, and the software does not store user data in other locations on your hard drive.

This is a well-designed application that keeps things simple and does its job with no unnecessary fuss. It can help you remove multiple unused device entries easily, and it features a lightweight, portable design.
