dUninstaller Changelog

What's new in dUninstaller 3.8

Feb 13, 2018
  • Added remote update options for your configuration files and definitions! (see usage notes above!)
  • Added encryption of registration and all non-numeric email settings.
  • Codejock control for some visual elements was updated from 15.3.1 to 16.4.0 and bundled with the update package. Note you DO NOT have to deploy the Codejock OCX file if you are using dUninstaller.exe in a scripted environment only with no user interface.

New in dUninstaller 3.7.8 (Feb 26, 2015)

  • Fixed an issue with data loss affecting the saving of file/registry deletion definition lists when edited via the dUninstaller UI.

New in dUninstaller 3.7.5 (Feb 26, 2015)

  • Fixed an issue where the whitelist would not be processed if a blacklist did not exist.

New in dUninstaller 3.7.2 (Feb 26, 2015)

  • Added dUninstaller /sendreport command line parameter to run a report of installed apps not matching definitions, and any installed apps matching the blacklist, and email that automatically to your pre-configured email address. Also added dUninstaller /logreport which does the same report, but saves it to the current directory as “dUninstaller_Report.txt”

New in dUninstaller 3.6.2 (Feb 26, 2015)

  • Fixed: Uninstall Now button was uninstalling items that were highlighted in the list in addition to items that were checked off in the list.

New in dUninstaller 3.6 (Aug 16, 2014)

  • Added Whitelist button
  • Added capability of whitelist/blacklist to match against publisher/mfgr names and not just app names.

New in dUninstaller 3.5 (Jun 30, 2014)

  • ATTN: dUninstaller log file renamed from dUninstaller.log to dUninstaller_log.txt (to make it easier to open the file in notepad for quick viewing.)
  • dUninstaller log file now shows when an application has failed to uninstall (may be somewhat prone to a false positive when multiple apps contain the same string of text, e.g. “program name” and “program name v2.0″ ONLY IF “program name” is the first one to get uninstalled instead of the v2.0 of it. The fix is to always have items arranged in an appropriate order in your defs.)
  • Fixed a recent issue with emails not sending as configured when uninstalling apps via the GUI.
  • Fixed a recent issue with the log file not being generated in the GUI or in command line mode when scripted.

New in dUninstaller 3.4.1 (Jun 19, 2014)

  • Added internal update functionality!! No more downloading updates from the website.
  • Added new /update command line parameter to auto-update itself before running other command line parameters passed to it.
  • Fix for the /auto parameter not working as expected under certain circumstances.

New in dUninstaller 3.3.1 (Jun 19, 2014)

  • CRITICAL FIX for failure to process whitelist under certain circumstances.
  • CRITICAL FIX for failure to process uninstall list during command line operation under certain circumstances.

New in dUninstaller 1.4.1 (Dec 23, 2013)

  • Added measures to ensure web browsers won’t be restricted from launching after an aborted run of dUninstaller.
  • Added /fixbrowsers command line parameter to force the fix on web browsers after an aborted run of dUninstaller.

New in dUninstaller 1.4 (Sep 7, 2013)

  • Now has options to edit definition entries.
  • Now uninstalls based on partial strings (not case sensitive) in the definitions. Ex. the definition entry ‘my pc backup‘ will flag/uninstall everything with that phrase in it, including ‘My PC Backup 2013‘

New in dUninstaller 1.3.2 (Sep 4, 2013)

  • New ability to reorder list items in definitions.

  • Added Google button to quickly research an item in the Installed Apps list.

New in dUninstaller 1.3 (Aug 13, 2013)

  • Now definition based uninstalls are done using the NAME of the product and not the IDENTIFIER — I had discovered several factors could cause the identifier to be different from system to system or in different installations of the same product.

New in dUninstaller 1.2.1 (Aug 10, 2013)

  • Added a refresh button!
  • Added /I detection and replacement in the MSIEXEC uninstall strings with /X (previously if /I was located in the string it REINSTALLED the product instead of UNINSTALLED.)

  • Now adds silent uninstall switches to ALL installers without a quietuninstallstring reg entry, not just MSI based installers.
