I use this tool every other day to test the installers of the products that we turn out. Keeps the devs honest ;-) -- Captain Ward , June 26, 2001   Good tool. This could become very useful in the event an uninstall doesnt work. -- Reid Jonasson , March 29, 2002   I agree, good find but not many opertunies to use it. -- Sean Fitzgerald , April 06, 2002   Nice utility, for the obvious reasons. Now we just need one that tracks the registry changes that windows settings make! -- No way , April 15, 2002   I'm sure there's one out there. -- BYU FAN , September 19, 2002   Good tool for anyone who needs it. -- Lee B , September 23, 2002   Please leave a comment if you're going to rate my tool. TIA. -- BYU FAN , October 16, 2002   Useful tool when uninstall still leaves a log of time-expiring trial programs. -- AJ Tomich , December 11, 2002   GLad you like it. The complete source code for this program is also availabe in this .zip file. -- BYU FAN , December 12, 2002   Works great, but will it run if I upgrade to XP? -- Ken Murray , March 24, 2003   Excellent tool. Will help track down those hidden files which keep track of demo expirations! JK ;) -- Dave Citron , April 10, 2003   Great tool written by: Copyright (c) 2000 Ziff Davis Media, Inc. Written by Neil J. Rubenking Handy tip: to use it to monitor what changes windows makes (eg when you change screen resolution) start incntrl, run up notepad.exe as the executable, wait for notepad to open. Then change whatever you want to monitor (eg screen resolution), close notepad and click 'Install done'. Incntrl will then generate a report showing what's changed. Strip out the standard notepad.exe changes and you get a list of changes were made when you changed your screen resolution. The principle holds good for monitoring any changes. -- Dave Snape , July 02, 2003   good utility, but inctrl5 does not have the realtime tracking option had in inctrl4, which track the installation process better -- Kevin Lin , July 30, 2003   I Love This Program, It Makes Fixing Issues With Install's Easy & Also Allows You To Make Sure Every Part Of The Program Is Gone. -- Cyber Citizen , August 24, 2005
