when i go into the control panel I find a lot of things that i think are junk; for example there is all of my udates which equal a lot and then some programs that i am not to sure of what they are; my computer is running a little slower with all the unnecessary stuff that i downloaded on my computer i run windows xp and i have a pc (dell) i would like to know what i can and can not safely remove
i am a novice and some computer jargon is not clear; bare with me and if you response please use simple language or jargonI want to know how to clear the updates from my control panel where you go to change/remove programs?When you go to change/remove programs, uncheck the box: show updates. If you don't want updates go to control panel%26gt; security, click on updates, turn off automatic updates. A good program I cannot do without is Toni arts Easy Cleaner for getting rid of unnecessary stuff on the computer with a click of a button. Another is Advanced Windows Care V2 Personal. Both are freeware.I want to know how to clear the updates from my control panel where you go to change/remove programs?DO NOT REMOVE YOUR UP DATES!! go to your system tools in accesseries and defrag and do a disk clean up. that should help alot But don't remove things you don'y know what are you will crash your pc
