Spring cleaning comes early to your computer
Over time, whether they?re a relic we still rely upon or a recently purchased powerhouse replete with cutting edge technology, our computers are home to needless software ? rubbish, essentially ? that would be best disposed of. Those old computers collect outdated software through the years, while brand new systems are often filled with trial software that most people end up ignoring upon use.
Aiding in the cleanup effort is a helpful utility that quickly removes unnecessary junk from your computer, freeing you from the task of uninstalling them individually.
Called PC Decrapifier, this program requires no installation, commencing with its task once you run the executable.
Once you?ve moved past the end user agreement, the program will alert you to its inability to distinguish between trial software and the full version of the same application. You should be mindful of what you?re selecting, which will save you the headache that?ll surely arise when you realize that you?ve removed an application that you use often.
You?re then asked to specify if the computer you?re ?decrapifying? is old or new.
It then offers you a chance to create a restore point, which will return your computer to a previously saved state should the removal of certain programs result in the occurrence of certain errors. Doing this is critical, as the removal of any program brings with it the removal of ancillary files ? drivers, libraries, etc. ? that may be used by other applications. However, you should know that the creation of a restore point will guarantee the recovery of any programs you remove.
After you?ve done that, the clean-up begins.
Although there?s a possibility the program will not detect any programs that need to be removed, which can happen on computers owned by those who are more pro-active in monitoring what?s installed, it does provide you an opportunity to select all of the programs you?d like to dispose of.
Once you?ve selected the programs, PC Decrapifier commences with its job, eliminating all of the programs you?ve checked as unnecessary. Doing this frees up your hard drive and may remove programs that impair your system?s performance with unnecessary processes running in the background.
For those of you who want to get a head start on spring cleaning, PC Decrapifier is certainly up to the task.
