Geek Uninstaller not working? What is the best alternative for app removal?

When Edge returns after a restart, it does not necessarily mean the uninstall failed. Because Edge is integrated with Windows, some components may remain or be restored by system updates. The "Geek Uninstaller not working" issue can become more noticeable with stubborn or preinstalled applications, while Bulk Crap Uninstaller can run registered uninstallers and check for remaining files and registry entries afterward.

Fixing the "Geek Uninstaller not working" issue with stubborn apps

1. Download Bulk Crap Uninstaller from its official GitHub Releases page, install it, and open the application. A portable version is also available.
2. Let the program scan the installed applications, then use the search field to locate the application you want to remove.
3. Select the relevant entry and run its normal uninstaller first when one is available. Complete the standard removal process before checking for leftovers.
4. If the normal uninstaller is missing, broken, or cannot complete the removal, use the available removal options for applications with incomplete uninstall information.
5. After the uninstall attempt, run the leftover scan and review the detected files, folders, and registry entries. Remove only items that clearly belong to the application you are uninstalling.
6. Restart Windows and check whether the application or its related processes remain. For Edge, some components may be treated differently from ordinary desktop applications because of their integration with Windows.

Bulk Crap Uninstaller can remove stubborn applications and check for remaining files and registry entries, but Edge may not behave like a regular desktop program because of its Windows integration. Review detected leftovers carefully before removing them, and keep in mind that system updates may restore certain components.
