Our free software lets you customize the NVIDIA GeForce Driver package by removing components that you don't need (or want). This not only keeps things tidy, but also lowers disk usage and memory footprint. Here is a way to install the AMD video driver only without all the other bloat, if that is what you want. Download the AMD driver package, open that.exe with 7zip and you will see Bin64,Config,Packages and Setup.exe. Go into Packages and extract 'Drivers'. Use AMD cleanup utility to uninstall.

First, you will need to download the AMD Cleanup Utility, which can be downloaded from THIS LINK HERE. After downloading, locate the file and double click on the AMDCleanupUtility.exe. A notification will populate to ask if you want to run it in safe mode or not. AMD recommends safe mode, but either will function for this purpose. Hunter Mode is an innovative feature that allows you to select in a more flexible way the program to uninstall or manage. When you activate Hunter Mode, Revo Uninstaller ‘s main window will disappear, and a new targeting icon will appear instead.

This is a script I have written to easily run on clients and servers which cleans up all common locations and logs etc

This is a script which I have been building over the last few months and I have tested and used on Windows 7,8,10, 2008r2 machines without issue.

Cleans up the following

Windows Event Logs
Restore Points
Windows and User Temp and Internet Temp Files
Windows and User Temp and Internet WER Files
Memory Dump & Mini dump Files
Windows Update Download Files
A few left over folders and files from updates and installs
Installs and Runs Windows Cleanup with all options selected (Silently)

Still need to add IIS Logs

This script will just run without any prompts so please make sure you test and are are happy with it before running on live systems. You can always just comment out what you don't want, such as event logs.

Save the attached as 'Windows_Cleanup.PS1' (Power shell Script) and the below as a batch file and save them into the same directory and then run the Batch file

powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File '%~dp0Windows_Cleanup.ps1'
pause

3 Steps total

Step 1: Create Batch File

Create a Folder and save the following as a batch file

powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File '%~dp0Windows_Cleanup.ps1'
pause

Step 2: Create the Powershell script

In the same folder as Step1, created a powershell file (Test File) and call it Windows_Cleanup.ps1

Then add these lines to it

  Shouldn't this have been contributed as a script instead of a how-to?

  I'll test it out, all the same. Thanks!

  Michael.SC Feb 16, 2017 at 12:12am

  Rather than using absolute paths you should use more environmental variables instead.

• Serrano
  Fabian2990 Feb 16, 2017 at 12:20am

  Feel free to make updates and suggestions.
  Whilst i can write and understand (Decipher) most scripting I'm still a bit of a hack and still learning as i go..

  adrian_ych Feb 16, 2017 at 12:29pm

  This is a cool script but I do get errors at the start with the removal of windows updates clean up...
  After the script ends, I ran the drive cleanup tool and I still have about 12GB of Windows update files which I cleaned using the tool.

  Overall....very nice tool....

  Excellent work. This is very impressive and easy to use.

  Sounds fun, i will have to try this on an old windows 7.

  Tron: An app built by custom scrips, and is constantly updated, that does everything from windows repair to virus removal, defragment, bloatware removal, etc...
  You can get it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/TronScript/wiki/downloads

  Just to add to this! you can also invoke the command on remote machines to make life even easier!

  powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass invoke-command -computer PCNAME? -filepath 'servernameshareWindows_Cleanup.ps1' | Out-File 'servernameshareWindows_Cleanup-%pcname%.log' -Append

  Richard2663 Feb 17, 2017 at 01:56pm

  that would be useful Fabian !!

  would i create a batch file with that command in it ?

  obviously changing the file paths and PC name?

  Just curious - how is this different than CCleaner? I've used it for years and been happy w/ the free version.

• Datil
  chrisf7 Feb 17, 2017 at 02:35pm

  FYI if you download tron it has a built in defragger, which you won't want to run on any devices with SSD's.

• Serrano
  Fabian2990 Feb 20, 2017 at 03:42am

  Whilst Tron and CCleaner are good tools to use.
  I wanted something that I can change and tweak as i went along and because our clients are spread out across a WAN network, i wanted something with a small foot print so it wouldn't effect WAN performance (Transferring files etc). We use a Client Management App that I have written in house, in which i can simply right click a client and run cleanup (Once finished I get a text file report back)

• Serrano
  Fabian2990 Feb 20, 2017 at 03:50am

  As mentioned above you can run this remotely on other machines, you will need to have your management of clients setup correctly to allow it though.
  (WIN-RM, Firewall, Admin rights etc)

  Simply save this as a batch file, update the PS1 path and set the PC name.
  You could pass a variable to the script to input the computer name.
  filename.cmd PCNAME

  rem
  set PC=%1
  set SRVPath=servernameshare

  powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass invoke-command -computer %PC% -filepath '%SRVPath%Windows_Cleanup.ps1' | Out-File '%SRVPath%Windows_Cleanup-%PC%.log' -Append

  rem

  how did you learn to make a script like this and specific tutorial that you would recommend?

• Serrano
  Fabian2990 Jun 18, 2017 at 09:54pm

  I tend to be able to read scripts/programming and pull them apart and learn from them.
  Other then that google and a lot of playing and testing

Nitro Cleanup Utility Free

Nitro has communicated with Mr*** and provided support above and beyond the End User License Agreement (EULA) that the customer agreed to when he purchased the product (Nitro Pro 8.0) on 9/17/As previously stated, Nitro only guarantees support for
previous versions of NitroWe currently have in market Nitro Pro
In addition, Nitro Customer Support provided the customer with cleanup utility, steps on how to use it and Nitro Pro offline installersNone of those worked because Nitro Pro is not compatible with Windows 10, which is the Operating System that the customer is now on
Mr*** has options from here:
Purchase Nitro Pro 11, which is compatible with Windows
Revert his OS to Windows or lower (to the version he had when he purchased Nitro Pro 8)
At this point, Nitro's obligations under the EULA have been met, and this is consistent with all major software licenses in terms of the scope and requirements around compatibility and support when new versions of the product are released

There was a web meeting scheduled with the customer, Mr. [redacted], on Friday, April 14. However, Nitro Customer Support was informed by the customer that morning that he resolved the problem on his own and no longer needed assistance.
We are happy to assist if the customer still needs...
additional support.

Please see attached business response.

We were not able to find any purchase records of Nitro Pro 10 from 2016 or earlier. When we asked for more information about this particular transaction, customer ignored us and stopped communicating. Both purchases of Nitro Pro 11 from 2017 have been refunded. It is not possible for Nitro...
Software Inc to charge a Nitro Pro trial customer without customer selecting to upgrade and then entering his/her personal and credit card information. In other words, simply installing a trial Nitro Pro license does not come with a charge.
Customer contacted us 2 times and each time our Support team responded professionally and within SLA requirements. Customer expected responses within minutes even though he has not subscribed to our Software Assurance which ensures first response time within 2 hours. Instructions were clear but ignored by the customer. Customer has never activated his license, even after we provided him with serial number and instructions on how to activate it. We asked for a screenshot of any error messages he received but customer kept ignoring our questions and troubleshooting steps. He kept complaining that we don’t have phone support even after we told him that we only provide email support.
Each correspondence and response times are recorded in our ticketing system as evidence that there was no mishandling of this customer’s cases.

Customer has already complained to Cleverbridge and received a refund for the purchase of Nitro Pro 11. Because of this, customer will not able to use Nitro Pro 11. Our records show that he is still using Nitro Pro 10 and has not complained about that version so far.
