Hi Marilyn!
Found this info on the program's site...it seems to be a well-thought out program with
fail-safes built in...check out the help files or the site for more info.  The site
was very informative.
FindOrphans scans all of your local hard drives and analyzes the dependency
relationships between the files. It also will scan and remember the files on your
removable disks. After the scanning process is complete, it will identify possible
orphan files and problem files, and provide a way to safely and reversibly remove
orphans. This reversibility is very important, as sometimes files can appear to be
orphans when they are not.

Subject: [PCSOFT] Uninstalling "Find Orphans" Program


> I recently downloaded a program called "Find Orphans" which was suppose to find all
orphan files to be reviewed and deleted. It downloaded almost 1500 files and I became
frightened that I would do something I shouldn't. Some of the files were motherboard
files. I did not touch any of the files. I left them sitting where they downloaded. If
I uninstall this program, will all those files go back to where they came from?
Thanks. Marilyn
