S.A.K. Utility vs UninstallView

S.A.K. Utility is a portable Windows repair toolkit for PC technicians, IT professionals, and system administrators. Its profile migration workspace guides backup and restore with smart filtering, AES-256 encryption, NTFS permissions, screenshot settings, and BitLocker key capture. Diagnostics check SMART disk health, run CPU, disk, and memory tests, monitor thermals, and export HTML, JSON, or CSV reports. Application Management matches installed software with Chocolatey packages, supports bulk installs and offline bundles, downloads installers, and scans for leftovers during removal. The vulnerability scanner checks software against CISA KEV, NVD, GitHub Advisories, and OSV. Other workspaces flash ISO and IMG files, create Windows media, provide network tools, and browse PST, OST, and MBOX archives without Outlook. An OpenAI assistant supports technician workflows. The free AGPL-3.0 utility runs from a Windows x64 ZIP and requests UAC elevation only when needed.

UninstallView is a free Windows utility from NirSoft for listing installed programs and uninstalling software on local or remote computers. With Load Windows Apps enabled, it can also list and remove Windows Apps. Information can come from the current system, other user profiles, a remote computer, an external drive, or a shadow copy. Uninstall modes include standard removal, change-install when available, and quiet uninstall when software supplies a quiet command. Remote uninstall requires Microsoft Sysinternals PsExec in the same folder; commands run as SYSTEM, and some uninstallers may not work correctly in that context. Lists can be exported to text, tab-delimited, CSV, HTML, XML, or JSON, including from the command line. The utility is portable: run UninstallView.exe without installation or extra DLL files. NirSoft lists Windows XP through Windows 11 support for 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Registry data may be supplemented by other sources and can be inaccurate.
