    Maybe someone can help me with a problem that I'm having with Revo Uninstaller v1.88. I downloaded it about twenty minutes ago and attempted to open the VS Revo Group (the developers) folder successfully, and then tried to open the Revo Uninstaller folder. I was denied permission. However "Properties" indicated that it contained no files or folders. I rebooted into Safe Mode and got rid of the folder that was empty. So I reinstalled v1.85. However I have been told that version does not work on 64-bit systems. I have Windows 7 Home Premium which I will eventually upgrade to Ultimate. Does anybody have accurate up-to-date information on this?

    Thanks,

    Hi Gerry,
    I've used it on my 64bit home premium, but this is from the revo page Download Revo Uninstaller Freeware - Free and Full Download
    Seems they would rather you buy the pro version to get full 64 bit support.

    Has anyone else noticed that there is no longer an offer for the free version of Revo Uninstaller on the Revo website. All that I can find is the Pro version which comes with a 30-day trial. Is it just me??

    If this is true, I am totally bummed. Revo Uninstaller is awesome, but not "pay for it" awesome.

    This is true and in very small print on their site. I guess that they decided to make some money. The Pro version looks innocent but it would interfere with other programs that I have had for years and won't give up.

    Bad luck for everybody,

    This was just excerpted from the Revo Uninstaller Home Page:


    Revo Uninstaller Freeware Revo Uninstaller Professional Current Version: 1.88 Current Version: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server Windows XP, Windows Server Windows Vista, Windows 7 Windows Vista, Windows 7: 32 bit systems only.

    The free version of Revo has always only uninstalled 32 bit apps. It runs fine on a 64 bit o/s.

    If you want a free uninstaller that also uninstalls 64 bit apps. , this seems to work well:

    Advanced Uninstaller Free - uninstall or remove programs easily using the most powerful uninstaller in the world, for Windows7, Vista and XP.
