Analyze Reboot Delete Description

Malicious software, or a virus is nothing more than an application programmed in such a method that modifies certain operating system features to either steal confidential info or damage system integrity. Not all are effective immediately, and most run as processes which makes it easy to identify and remove. In this regard, Analyze Reboot Delete, as the name suggests, aims to target locked files and have them removed before the corresponding process starts.Lightweight, with no installation requiredThe application comes in a pretty lightweight package, with no installation required so you can easily store it on a removable drive and use it where it is needed. What's more, there is no sophisticated interface, with only a few guided steps needed in order to put the process in motion. Running it triggers a series of windows, each explaining the role of the next, with the last only serving as a method to take one last look at the chosen files and confirm the operation. There is no imposed restriction to file format, but folders are not a valid item for selection. Select multiple files to deleteWhen it comes to choosing desired files to remove on the next system reboot, you get to work with a simple file explorer like window where you can select one or more items, but they all need to be in the same directory. However, as easy as it might seem, the application comes with several functionality issues, that make it lack practicability almost entirely. On the one hand, if you select multiple entries there seems to be no effect, with several cases and file formats tested out on both Windows 8 and 7. Poor implementation of featuresWhat's more, upon logging into Windows after a reboot, you need to manually check whether or not files are deleted, with no confirmation message to alert you. Furthermore, seeing how it is mandatory to restart your system for changes to take effect, an option to force restart would have greatly come in handy. You might consider this option is not implemented so that you can select files from different directories. Unfortunately, this is not the case, because only the first selected file is removed and no matter how many more instances you launch there is no warning in this regard. Restart needed for each fileOn the other hand, disappointments continue to appear due to the lack of an integration in the context menu. It gets rather frustrating having to go through multiple repeated restart sessions and going through the whole process each time files need to be removed. To end withAll things considered, we reach the conclusion that Analyze Reboot Delete is a rather poor choice when it comes to getting rid of locked files that can damage your system, once and for all. Even though the process takes little time to put in motion, practicability plunges towards zero because of various functionality issues.
