    Finding all files that should have been trashed with uninstall.


    I had a Shareware Paste program in Mac Lion that had no uninstall. The standard AppCleaner took out most of the files but not all. A program called iFileX found every dirty little bit of that program including internet references to it still left on the computer. The Mac also runs Windows 7 and I'm having problems finding associated files with Windows software that really want to stay around. What's the program to find everything associate with a file in Win 7?

    I use Revo Uninstaller and heartily recommend it. :)

I'd appreciate a little help with a problem I'm having in finding files. I suspect it might have to do with Libraries which I don't fully understand. If I go to C:\music I can see any number of music files located there. But when using another program and their option to "browse", when I go...
