(Forced Program Removal.)

I’ve had a real problem with a computer program from a company called NCH. The software program in question is called, Debut Video Capture. The blurb! – It records and captures videos from almost any source. Available on Mac or PC.

DO NOT INSTALL THIS SOFTWARE.

Nor anything from this appalling company, and that’s the reason there are no links to their wretched site.

The main problem with their software suites, (which are in actual fact quite good), is that you can’t uninstall, the installed program from your computer, not ever!

Ignore the fact that they say you can do it, you blooming well cannot! – Not without being a (Registry Mechanic), and that was something I didn’t feel comfortable in doing. Nor did I have time to learn.

So, for over a year, this piece of crap has been sitting on my PC. I got fed up with it popping up, saying (Buy me!) – etc .. etc .. which goaded me into digging around in the mucky Internet for a solution, and to my surprise: I found a review site for such utilities.

It’s here, and the site is very good.

( all links will open new windows. )

The program I found for removing this NCH (crap-ware(tm) piece of shit), is called Geek-Un-Installer.

The link is to the Author’s web page, and the program itself is a standalone module, meaning it can run from a USB stick, (very handy). It’s also free for personal use, but more importantly.  – (It works!)

Where the crapware was concerned, I had to use (force-removal) to get the video-capture program off of my PC, and to my eminent relief, it’s finally gone, and my relief was such: that I actually purchased a license for the professional version of Geek Uninstaller. Which even uninstalls the useless addon windows programs like solitaire, office 2million, and not forgetting the X-Box bull-crap suite of nonsense.

Obviously they all come back on the next major windows update, but that doesn’t stop me from uninstalling them all over again.

Hope it helps.

 

Thanks for reading, Jessica: Praise be the ORI.
