Using installer Cleaner

John Doue

Sorry, my initial post mentionned mistaken Registry cleaner. I meant
Installer Cleaner.

Installer Cleaner is a neat tool when the standard uninstall process fails.

I am wondering if there is a way to track changes made to the registry
while removing a given entry with this Installer Cleaner?

If you mean the windows installer cleanup utility, read the caveats before
using the tool; which in any case only removes the installer entries, and
not the actual program

I have been using it for years, but would like to know more about what
which particular entries it removes.

The idea being, I'd like to be able to remove a given entry, install a
new program and then restore the removed entries. This can be useful to
troubleshoot installations.

Ideally, I would like to have a long of what it does when it removes a
specific entry.
