Some uninstallers do not remove everything

My friend uninstalled McAfee internet security and he sees folders and files on his C drive with wording McAfee.

So I recommend a search feature in CCleaner to "search and use brute force to remove all files and folder that contain the word in a new CCleaner search bar.

This new feature would be an advanced feature to only use
after you run a uninstall

Yeah, I don't see why companys don't go in and fix the problem. "IF" we want a program completely deleted, then put in the feature with-in the uninstaller! But No! we have to relie on Ccleaner and others to do that for us. Which is good. But I for one, know when I uninstall a program I look in the main Drive and delete the subfolders :rolleyes:
