Bulk Crap Uninstaller 4.7 Build 42777

Bulk Crap Uninstaller

Bulk Crap Uninstaller is a free (as in speech) program uninstaller. It excels at removing large amounts of applications with minimal user input. It can clean up leftovers, detect orphaned applications, run uninstallers according to premade lists, and much more. Even though BCU was made with IT pros in mind, by default it is so straight-forward that anyone can use it effortlessly!

  • Detect and uninstall Windows Store apps
  • Uninstall multiple items at once to speed up the process (with collision prevention)

  • Adds quiet uninstall options to some uninstallers, even if they do not support them by default
