If the operating system and various devices are running too slowly, it's time to remove unnecessary programs from your computer and clean it of debris. It is not necessary to have special skills to do this, as everything you need for removal and cleaning is at hand.
Instructions
Step 1
Try first to remove unnecessary programs from your computer using a special system service. Click on "Start" and launch "Control Panel". Select Programs and Features. Depending on the power of your computer, it will take some time to update the list of installed programs. Examine the list carefully. For convenience, click on the "installed" line to arrange the components in the order of their installation time on the hard drive.
Step 2
Select one of the unnecessary programs and click on the "remove / change" button. This will start the uninstall service of the corresponding application. Follow the instructions and follow the suggested actions to complete the uninstaller, then click Finish or Finish. After a few seconds, the list of applications will be updated, and the program you just removed will disappear from it. Repeat the uninstallation process with all other redundant applications.
Step 3
You can remove unnecessary programs from your computer directly from their locations. Shortcut paths to applications are usually found in the All Programs section of the Start menu. The folder with each program must have a "Delete" icon that launches the uninstaller. If there is no icon, right-click on the name of the application and select "Properties". In the window that appears, click "Location". You will find yourself in the folder with the installed program on your hard drive. Find the launcher file here with the name Uninstall or its derivatives and open it.
Step 4
If you want to quickly remove all unnecessary programs, you can select the folder with the excess application and delete it by pressing the Del button. Please note that in this case information about the program will remain in the system registry, which in some cases leads to various conflicts. However, this will help you free up space on your hard drive.
Step 5
Periodically look into the folders "My Documents", "Downloads", "Videos", etc., clearing them of unnecessary files. Remember that when you open files over the Internet, they are usually saved in Downloads, thereby taking up space on your hard drives. Also, do not forget to empty the "Trash" folder with deleted files.
