My goal was to declutter my machine as good as I could, and I had a whole barrage of tools ready, namely "Patch Cleaner", "Installer Cleanup Script", as well as even some custom PowerShell scripts. I am familiar with uninstallers (Revo, Iobit etc.) and of course I have my fair share with so-called "registry cleaners", from JV16 to CCleaner to Auslogics to Youname it. In particular I had a hosed Visual Studio install (Visual Studio 14.0, but also Visual Studio 15.0) where I faced the absurd task needing to manually remove/uninstall the zillions of leftover components, namely SDKs and much more.

I have a Win10 machine which over the years accumulated lots of stuff. Also, I have no relationship with that company who is making Wise Care Likewise, I am fairly experienced with Windows and build PCs for a long time, so this may help with context.

and I am otherwise not keen on so-called maintenance and PC speedup software. HEAR ME OUT first! I know about the nonsense of "registry cleaners" etc.
