A suggestion

Greetings.

Great tool. I've been testing this for a few days now and indeed is removing [as i have tested] everything.
But i have noticed something that is not helping users to remove the exact logged installation.
My example :
I have install VMPlayer. At the end of the installation the name for the logged installation that appeared
was Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219. I delete this and i inserted my own
description title for this installation, but it was ignored. Instead, in the list, two new entries appeared:
1) VMPlayer
2) Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219
I tried to uninstall the VMPlayer. It's own uninstaller started and finished and then dissapeared
from the list but as i have checked, the program, directories, files, reg entries etc were there.
I had to uninstall the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219 log entry from
the list so to be able to see the Full Uninstall's "remove traces of VMlayer" and uninstall the VMPlayer for good.

As i know from other similar tools, a custom name in the list for each installation is helping a lot.
Just a suggestion [before i buy it]. Keep on the good work.

Hello,

Thank you, we'll consider your suggestion to add the ability to specify the custom names for the installations. Probably we'll add it to the upcoming version 2.0.

BTW, in the next 2.0 version of Full Uninstall the program will remove unnecessary programs even deeper by finding the traces left during their work (the currently available tracing of the installation process does not allow this).
