Track driver installation

Post by kiwi »

can this Uninstall Tool be used to track system changes when install device driver? (as driver is lowest-level driver that directly control a physical device) If yes, Uninstall tool will not not interfere with driver installation?
Also, is there any advantages to use Uninstall Tool compare with default windows uninstaller control panel applet, to uninstall programs that has been installed without using Uninstall Tool, ie. without tracking?

Hello,

Uninstall Tool never interferes with any installations, it just tracks all created file system/registry items.

Then when deleting a traced program, you will be able (via Uninstall Wizard) to remove all leftovers completely.

Driver installation includes a couple of registry keys and a .sys file normally, there's no problem in that

When right click on exe file, just noticed there is missing context menu "Install and trace with Install tracker". What can cause this?

What is your Windows version? Try to reinstall the app.
