IObit has announced the release of IObit Uninstaller 4, an interesting extension of its freeware program uninstaller.
 
The program now has the ability to completely remove Windows 8 apps. A "batch uninstall" option ditches as many as you like in a single operation, and the "Powerful Scan" tool ensures there's no hard drive or Registry junk left behind.
 
System Restore integration will optionally prompt you to create a restore point before you begin.

Hi Anthony
 
Yup, noticed that one but have to say that I am not a fan of IObit, the company due to shady practices in the past...so I am steering clear of this one and keepomg to Revo Uninstaller which is tried and trusted...but of course does not yet uninstall Win 8 apps...but then again I find that Win 8 does a very good job doing that itself.
 
Regards, Baldrick

I have to agree with you Solly on IObit, in the past I had some problems with them. They are not always on the up and up
