Easy Uninstall is put into this category not without a reason too. Our security specialists who have tested this program have found several disturbing facts about it. All of them will be presented further in this article. On top of that, our specialists are going to explain to users how to get rid of a potentially unwanted program.

As our specialists have managed to notice, the application will really open a list with all the programs installed, so it might really help you to delete programs.
