Another way to speed up your PC is to see which are the programs you have installed and see if you need any applications or not. To do this, click Start – Settings – Control Panel – double-click Add / Remove Programs.
Most likely, you will find programs that you used once or twice. Removing them will free disk space and make your PC run faster.
When you uninstall software not
Removing software should not be as smooth as one who hopes. A very common problem is that some programs do not remove all their data completely, leaving behind some files. These files are called junk files.
Sometimes you need to uninstall the trial version of software, to record the full version. But if the uninstall process is not complete, you may not be able to record the program you paid.
If the uninstaller does not work, it may be possible to manually remove the software. This means that you must remove all files and configuration data from your hard disk. Normally, the software uses the Windows registry to store configuration information.
First, you need to find the folder where the program was installed. More likely is the Program Files directory. Locate the folder and delete the software. If it is impossible to delete some files, try restarting your computer. This will help if the files were used by the system. If you can not delete files, even after a reboot, try booting in safe mode (F8 during boot tap PC) and then delete the file.
After that you need to remove the registry entries invalid. Microsoft offers a free Windows Installer CleanUp to help you do the job. After you install and open, select an application you want to remove from the list. The utility removes all the registry entries relating to that software. Double check what applications and select the backup of the registry in case something goes wrong.
If you are running Windows Installer CleanUp does not solve the problem, you can use third of the registry cleaner. Be careful to use only well-known software that has received positive reviews and reliable prizes. There are a lot of programs that claim to be great, but in reality they contain malware and spyware, and can damage the computer.
