I need some clarification on the use of UPHClean.

I understand from the readme that using the -install and -remove switches
will allow it to be installed as a service.

Can it also be run as a standalone? If so, where are the results logged?

I have read all these reference and more; they do not anwser my questions:

It is installed as a service, the User Profile Hive Cleanup service.

The readme states...

[[- Run the program with the -install switch to install the service and
start it
(e.g. uphclean -install)

The service is set to automatically start when the computer boots so you
will
not need to start it manually. Below I've listed the events that you will
find
in the application log when it takes positive steps to unload profile
hives.]]

[[If you manually installed:
- Run the program with the -remove switch to stop the service and remove it
(e.g. uphclean -remove)]]

Event Viewer. See LOGGED EVENTS in the Readme.
