A candidate for sainthood

| No Comments

The author of Bulk Crap Uninstaller - a wonderful application (and very dangerous - it assumes that you know what the fsck you are doing).

I am cleaning off several computers here. For example, I had been using Pinnacle video editing software. It is OK but I moved up to Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve - much better. I uninstalled the Pinnacle application but there was a metric ton of cruft left over that I simply did not bother to take the time to root out and delete. BCU picked it up and got rid of it.

Same for a number of applications. Also, some uninstall routines require user intervention. BCU will schedule all of these at the beginning of the run so you can hang out, hit the ENTER key a couple of times and then go and do something else while the rest of your work is being done for you. I sent him $20 - well worth it.
