Bulk Crap Uninstaller (BCU) is a free, open-source Windows application uninstaller that excels at removing large amounts of applications with minimal user input. It detects apps from many sources (registry, Steam, Windows Store, Chocolatey, portable apps), cleans leftovers, and automates uninstalls via premade lists.
Use cases
- bulk uninstall bloatware from a new Windows PC
- remove many programs at once with minimal clicks
- clean up leftover files after uninstalls
- detect and remove orphaned or portable applications
- automate uninstalls across machines using premade lists
- manage Steam, Windows Store, and Chocolatey apps in one place
- free up disk space by removing unwanted software
When to choose
- you need to uninstall many applications quickly on Windows
- you want to detect apps that standard uninstallers miss, including portable or damaged installs
- you need scripted or list-driven unattended uninstalls for IT administration
- you want a free, open-source alternative to commercial uninstaller utilities
When to avoid
- you need a cross-platform uninstaller (Windows only)
- you want a lightweight background service rather than an on-demand GUI tool
- you need deep system cleaning beyond application uninstallation (e.g., registry cleaners, driver management)
- you require long-term commercial support - the project is looking for maintainers
