• my C drive is full, how do I know what programs can I remove?

  I know that you can remove some programs, but how do I know what ones I can remove without affecting my computer?

  I know that you can remove some programs, but how do I know what ones I can remove without affecting my computer?

  We cannot comment on what programs you need to remove. In addition, some programs running in the background and removing will raise questions.

  However, you can uninstall programs that have been installed by you. You can go to start-> programs and features-> press enter type. Search for programs that have been installed by you, select them and click on uninstall, individually.
  Once uninstalled, you can install another drive as the installation location.
  But, before you uninstall, go on-> do work right click on the C partition :\-> click Properties. In the Properties dialog box, click Disk Cleanup. In the Disk Cleanup dialog box, click clean up system files. And then click Ok. This will clean the junk files.

• How will I know what program/Application is associated with a given file extension?

  General question: How can I determine what Application is using a certain file extension? Some are well known, such as .doc for MS Word, MS Excel .xls, PDF for Adobe Acrobat. But is there a master list somewhere which is viewable by the general public?
  This question came from what I was gettnig low disk space on my hard drive and do some research, and found a group of 5 files with extension. ECW, for a total of almost 50 MB. After trying for a few hours to find on the Web, what type of program may have created these files, I let fall, back up the files on a CD and has deleted and restarted. So far, no bad consequences, but still a little scary.
  I think that all software manufacturers should have to register their extensions with MicroSoft, correct? To repeat: is there a list published, or how to find this information in the future?

  Alphabetical list of filehttp://filext.com/alphalist.php?extstart=%5ED extensions

  Scroll to the end, click on the alphabet to find the extension and program to open with.
  e.g. p for pps etc.

• I need to create a space on my hard drive, how do I know what program files / other files etc. to safely remove. See you soon

  The original message has been c drive was very low disk space. I have run Chkdsk - apparently very well. I now want to run Defragmenter but she needs more dick than is available space in order to operate. I need to dick free space - what I need to know is how to free up space safely.

  Frannie

  I'd be interested to see a report of Disk Defragmenter. Open Disk Defragmenter and click analysis. Select view report, and then click Save as and save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents folder. Open the file, and place the cursor anywhere in the file, select Edition, select all to select all the text and copy and paste into the body of your message. To do this, before you run Disk Defragmenter because it is more informative.

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter

• How do I know what VMs running on an ESX host, at a given time?

  Is it possible to see running virtual machines on an ESX host at some point? We had a problem yesterday and I'd like to see what virtual machines have been affected by this problem.

  Since they have all been migrated around the cluster, I would like to know if there is an easy way to find this information somewhere. The host had to be removed from the cluster and readded later.

  You could highlight the container that VMS are in, and then select 'Tasks and events' (CTRL-SHIFT-E) to see the events of migration, but this will be a very manual process.

• I don't have the money to buy more ram, how to remove programs to get more memory and how do I know which programs remove

  I need of more memory, I can't afford to buy it, how to remove stuff to create more memory and how do I know what programs are ok to remove

  I think you're confusing terms and certainly confuse us.

  RAM/memory (they are identical) is the memory on the computer that is used by programs running as a temporary store for data.  How to reduce the amount of memory used is to close unnecessary programs or does not work as much.  for example close the browser and your e-mail so that the execution of Word program.  You do not need to uninstall programs, run just not, to save memory.

  IF you talk about not having enough disk space to store your programs and data, then the way to increase the free space on the disc IS to uninstall unnecessary programs - only you can decide what programs you don't need.  One way to increase disk space is to make sure you have emptied your Recycle Bin to delete the old data files, you don't want to, and uninstall programs.

  You need to tell us exactly what error messages you get so that we can determine what your problem is.

• Should I delete the programs of 2004? How can you know what is safe to delete?

  Original title: remove programs

  I think I have a virus.  I see on my computer a few applications with and installed as of 2004.  The computer was purchased in 2007.  When I run it in safe mode, it works fine and all applications have a date of 2007 or newer.  Should I delete the programs of 2004? How can you know what is safe to delete?

  Hello

  This is not an indication of malware. Could be those are placed on the
  computer by the manufacturer of the system and that was the date that firstly, they prepared their
  for massive installation, or if they did not set a date and be used arbitrarily.

  =============================================================

  If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
  scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
  resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
  cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
  extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

  It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
  the regular windows when you can.
