BleepingComputer.com: How to erase residual files and folders from a prior uninstall of a program

After I uninstall some programs, I notice there is still residual materials left on my hard drive in program directories, user data directories and other registry entries.

For example two programs that I uninstalled previously include Seagate Manager and RoboForm yet in C:/ProgramData (hidden folder) there are two folders "Seagate/Seagate Manager" and "RoboForm" which each contain one to a couple files in them.

Do I still need these files/folders even though the programs are uninstalled on my pc? How can I erase them? Can I erase it manually? Is there a program that erases these residual materials on my hard drive?

Hello, RoboForm is a password Manager and Form filler. It can go.
