Anyone using Unchecky?

@black3dynamite It appears to do a nice job. I tried to install some freeware programs that I know throw offers in and it unchecked them. Thinking about putting it on my family members computers

I think this product is by the same company as ccleaner. Piriform. If that is who they are I won't use them because of their security. Nice idea in theory but I don't want to take chances.
It isn't from Piriform

I support no family member that does not let me remove admin rights from them.

So many headaches saved by this. . .
Oh you want to install that.. . . yeah no.

Nope, don't need it, I use Chocolatey to install most of that junk.
As JB said, take away admin rights and most of these problems go away.

Don't support home users and the issues ALL go away.
