Remove Junk and Unwanted Software from PC with PC De-Crapifier

If you just buying a new computer, be it notebook or desktop computer, most likely the PC will come with lots of free preinstalled software other than the base operating system. These preinstalled programs intend to let you have the simple ability to use the enhanced functionality of the computer features, so most of the bundled software are trimmed-down or scaled-down version with limited functionality or demo which will expire. You may want to uninstall, remove and get rid the unwanted or crap programs to free up system resources such as memory and disk space. And PC De-Crapifier (previously known as Dell De-Crapifier) is designed to remove a specific list unwanted software automatically without intervention.

PC De-Crapifier works best on most Dell notebooks and desktops, however, it also works on most other brand of computers. PC De-Crapifier can automate the uninstallation of the following programs, which are selectable by users to decide whether they want to uninstall the particular program or not. Note that the software needs to be listed in Add/Remove Programs for the script to work properly. The automation script can be used on old PC too.

    Thank you for this listing of the ‘crap’ products out there these days. I found it quite useful while searching to confirm that the ‘RecordNow’ apps were indeed part of the offensively obtrusive “U3″ software found embedded (and auto-install) on some USB drives, such as the Sandisk Cruzer. Our IT Department wisely doesn’t allow this kind of junk from a security standpoint, and watching it auto-install stuff … while NOT EVEN ASKING FOR PERMISSION OR TELLING YOU WHAT IT IS … is highly frustrating.

    More frustrating still is that you can’t wipe out the U3 crap on a thumb drive by using a Mac…you have to RISK a Windows PC to run the “uninstall” application to wipe it.
