Remove pre-installed software

Computers HP are equipped with software pre-installed that I will probably never use and is promotional only.  The following removable without denying Windows 7?

1 HP Media Smart Touch - smart Netflix

2 film theme Pad for HP Media Smart video

3 DVD Menu Pack for HP Media Smart Video

4 HP Media Smart DVD, music, Photo, Menu, video, smart, Smart video, Touch Smart Netflex

5 HP Setup

6 photo now

7 photo Mover

8 power Director

9. press on drive

10 Shockwave

11 ask Toolbar

12. ATT - RC car tool Support

Seems a number of these programs preinstalled for cameras and video.  I edit photos using Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and does not expect to use my computer as a TV. I'd appreciate your experience to remove the elements of learning.  To facilitate response, number instance with the name of the software of reference only.

Thank you

Hello

You can uninstall everything but.

Article 10 - Shockwave is Adobe and used for rendering videos etc. in some Web pages.

The only other software you can consider keeping is HP MediaSmart DVD - depends on if your PC has a Blu ray player, if it doesn't you will need this software to play Blu ray.  If you don't have a Blu ray drive, you can delete it fortunately.

Kind regards

    I want to remove pre-installed windows 8 and want to install windows xp in hp 6 but idont know how to install

    Hello

    First thing to do is to go to the HP website and see if the XP drivers are available for your model of HP.

    http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

    If there is no XP drivers, XP does not work for you.

    If the XP drivers are available, looking for a place to buy XP, which is a terrible thing to do as Microsoft did not sell XP for many years.

    You run the very serious risk of buying pirated XP software from anywhere on the Net.

    Stay with your preinstalled Windows 8.

    See you soon.

  • Tecra M9 (PTM91E) how to remove the installed software / how to stop HARD drive

    Just having a play with the new "beastie" and it seems to be exactly what I want. However, some problems are annoying me.

    1. the installed bloatware!

    2. the disk drive continually ticks away when the machine is at rest. Investigation with a sniffer package/program indicates that the service of AMT is continually send and receive data packets of bytes 70 to the client on the computer. Every second or two. Using about 2-3% of cpu resources in the process.

    Basically, I use the laptop as a stand-alone work station and see no need to have a service that constantly questions the chipset for so-called mistakes and supposed to be written to the log of sysevent. He feels the potential of surveillance unsolicited - which I suspect that someone made.

    The question is... do I need to have the AMT (lms & ums) software on the system - and if not, can I uninstall stop the activity continuous disc shatter tocking without adversely affecting the operation of the equipment?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    I am somewhat concerned by the AMT of documentation I've read - purely a question of 'private life '. I don't relish the idea of having someone with intelligence to write external programs that can enter into the bowels of the machine to interrogate harware/bios/sysevents, etc. (even when he is off!)

    I can understand it to a company, IT control aspects, but as a user of the singular that occasionall uses the internet.

    Thank you!

    Hi Ron

    (1) I don't know what bloatware do you mean exactly, but to be honest, there is no installed bloarware.
    Is that Toshiba laptops support different features and different functions that must be controlled by a software/driver. If you would remove such software then you would not be able to use the FN keys for example
    Anyway, if you want to remove some pre-installed applications then you can do this in Control Panel-> programs & features control

    (2) sorry but AMT software does not know me basically there s nothing unusual you HDD ticks from time to time. The same thing happens on my laptop even though that I don t use the laptop. I think that it s a Windows operating system.

  • Problem on recovering pre-installed software.

    My problem is a bit complicated.

    I recently bought this HP Envy 14 1190ea when I was visiting my sister in the United Kingdom. I used there, and it worked like a charm.

    Then I came back to the Brazil and a few days later the HARD drive no longer works. No problem, I just buy another HARD drive, installed my original Windows 7, install the drivers and it is good to go, until...

    I noticed that I don't have the recovery Partition, of course, and I lost some of the delivered software pre-installed on Envy 14-1190ea, some of them that I use a lot, such as Adobe Photoshop Elements.

    What should I do? How can I have my software back? Can I contact someone from HP to inform my number/product number and have a serial key for this software? Or quite simply, I lost my software for ever?

    Thanks for the help.

    Unfortunately there is no way that you can choose what is the restore disk, they are designed to restore the computer to care of the factory, but there may be an out of the box in a way.

    If you buy a new hard drive or even a second-hand which is at least the same size or bigger, then the one you use now, you can remove your current drive, insert the new (used) an and install the HP on the other disk operating system.

    There will be a file on the new drive in 'C' called SwSetup, burn it on a DVD, you should find your Adobe Elements in there. This can be used to install Adobe turn it on for your present ounce by car that it is back in the machine.

    The other way is to move all your belongings on a flash drive, reinstall the OS HP and drag your belongings to the own HP install.

    The second solution would be preferable because your Adobe Elements may not be in the SwSetup folder for you to reinstall later. My dv8 had some preinstalled ArcSoft software retouching photos, when I got it and it was not present in the SwSetup folder.

    I'm running a retail version of W7 now and there is no way to install the ArcSoft photo software with out having to buy a product key.

    If you have a product key for your adobe, you can simply download Adobe and enter your key.

  • Unwanted pre-installed software and programs

    I just bought a new computer and "fired yesterday. There are many pre-installed programs/software that I don't want.

    I looked in the Control Panel, and they are not listed. I have a Revo Uninstaller, and they are not listed there either.

    How to get them out of my computer?

    I have a HP h9-1180 Phoenix uses Win 7 Home.

    I'll do my best. Many of them are just shortcuts to Web pages. You can be quite confident removing them or if you feel that you can use later to create a storage folder and keeping them there for a while.

    Windows 8 on screen starting subway if I right click on it can tell UPIN therefore, it's a shortcut. Or you can hear UNINSTALL it. So I know this is the program, so I uninstall it. But most of the time, they are just shortcuts.

    You can deepen by right clicking on the icon, arrived at propterties and it will tell you if it's a shortcut or a program. It will also tell you where this program is installed if infact it is a program.

    I hope this helps. Moreover, if Norton is out there you can download a TOOL of SUPPRESSION of NORTON on the web. Just Google for it.  Let me know if all others.  Jack

After that the updates that I discovered that it had installed 100 Malware, spyware and adware programs such as SearchProtect and Savepass. Rocketab was preinstalled on the computer that is reported to several harmful as Adware virus databases. I have Mcafee sense removed from the computer and have cleaned up the mess she had made. After consulting several IT professionals, it was determined that the preinstalled mcaffee was a malicious program to dress up like the real thing. They determined that because of the narrow high resource usuage that the program used when executing passively citing one of them "Mcafee is supposed to be a small footprint on the computer." When I returned to best buy to get the service of quality control I was refused the technician saying they couldn't prove which has been pre-installed of what I had installed. My audio driver is not present also its development options and I had to manually configure the graphics drivers in order to properly determine who should be the principal for some programs.

    I found the problem took time with the audio, but I realized my part Dolby of the pilot was not fully upgraded it is always digital Dolby rather then home theater.

    There is nothing on the drive on which the end user can use to reinstall other through instructions Samsung.

    On some PCs from Samsung, you press F10 as the PC starts to access recovery.

    Be aware that if the player does not, you will not be able to recover.

  • Qosmio X 300 - what pre-installed software can remove

    I need to know what I can remove it and which must remain about bloatware! I would like to run the least possible, this is used for video and audio live and does not play videos with microsoft media waste!

    I would also like to know why 90% of the time that processor is pegged at 1.5 GHz and not running at 2.4 GHz, appropriately!

    I changed all of the properties that I can find which change cpu clock settings but it still stops back! It's embarrassing as I wanted a portable 1.5GHz, that I bought it for £50!

    Besides the fact that it is slowing down its ok! someone Tosh get in touch as soon as possible!

    I also like a new installation and remove some of the bloatware after execution of a recovery, but at least the additional software can be removed :)

    Everything that is not specific Toshiba can be deleted, such as Google Desktop, Norton/McAfee.

    Look in Control Panel of-> features of the program and remove the software, you don't want to. But do not touch the software that starts with "Toshiba." Toshiba positions are essential for the system and not to "pump up" Windows.

    All CPU Core2Duo have power saving features (speed Stepping) that lower the speed of the CPU when the processor is idle. This saves battery power and keeps the laptop cool and can even extend the life of the CPU. He works automatically up to 2.4 GHz when additional speed is needed. Even desktop PC it these days, there is nothing to worry.

  • Satellite A300 - 1FC - Vista recovery without any pre-installed software

    Hello

    I bought an A300 - 1FC to German string sotres Saturn.
    It's a computer laptop nice until now the only thing that bothers me is the bunch of preinstalled software that is of no use to me.

    Is it possible to recover the plain windows only and then install all the required drivers
    and service packs manually. Or at least in a way that leaves out all the unnecessary software?

    If not I'm quite willing to downgrade - I don't like vista particularly well anyway but handset
    with the annoyment of the preinstalled software, it is certainly enough reason to get rid of him.

    Any help?

    See you soon

    aurtobi

    Hello

    As you can see Toshiba, like all other manufacturers of portable, offers the recovery image. This recovery image contains all the necessary drivers, Toshiba has designed tools and utilities and also some additional software.

    You must understand that maybe 10% of people have knowledge of PC and they are able to configure the laptop only. I am glad that you are one of them, but you must know that this recovery image is designed for the installation of operating system simple and not complicated. There is no possibility to install clean Vista using this recovery media.

    Another way person doesn't force you to use each of them. All the unnecessary stuff, you can remove the system. Believe me I do the same thing. Your needs, you can optimize the operating system.

    Bye and good luck!

  • I want to REMOVE pre-installed Dell program Sync Up.

    Hello

    I never used and do not always hear using the Sync software on my Dell laptop. I want to know if there is anyone with enough know-how to REMOVE it completely from my system. Key word: DELETE. I don't want it to exist on my computer at all. I want to REMOVE it. I don't want to turn it off I want to REMOVE it. If you can not tell me how to REMOVE it then don't post because you are not answering my question either. I have read and felt the frustration of many others trying to get this resolved and they only got shit 'answers' (they were not answers if they offer something that the user did not like to turn it off). If you are trying to suggest / tell me something that is not completely REMOVE the crapware from my system, I'll probably do panic.

    Thank you

    Gabe

    Hi Gabe,

    Please share the system model and the installed operating system. Assuming that you are running Windows 7, you can follow the below mentioned steps to remove it:

    • Click on Start -> Control Panel -> programs -> programs and features -> uninstall a program.
    • Select the application you want to uninstall and click Uninstall.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to remove the application.

    If the step above does not work, you can install Revo Uninstaller Pro from the link http://www.revouninstaller.com/. Install it on your system, and use it to uninstall the app Sync Up. The operating instructions are shared under the section How To manuals and videos. This should completely remove it from the application of the system.

    Note: It is a third party application, Dell cannot support or sponsor this application.

    Answer please if you have any questions. I'll be happy to help you.

    Hello

    The fact is that if you buy a new Toshiba notebook you also get the Windows operating system, drivers, tools and 3rd party applications.
    All programs of this 3rd part of the image of Toshiba and you cannot install only selected application, but only the entire image of Toshiba.
    Usually if a user loses the Toshiba restore cd so it can order it from the Toshiba service partner. But I'm not sure about the second hand units.

    These above is appeared on all yahoo Messenger, itunes, DBMS, now a Toshiba DVD player, go figure what wrong with the Toshiba brand!

    Hello Lila

    Your ad is quite confusing. A lot of software that you mentioned in your ad has nothing to do with Toshiba, including office Microsoft, Yahoo and iTunes. I imagine that you install also.
    Player doesn't have to be updated if everything works well. I have iTunes installed on my computer and from time to tie, I also have information about some updates but I simply ignore it.

    I have two laptops Toshiba and never noticed anything like that. If you use some additional software, there is nothing unusual. Most of them informs users about updates or new versions. It's what to make your decision. You can also disable these options. Check the properties of some applications.

  • How to remove pre-installed games

    My computer running Vista when I bought it and I've since upgraded to Windows 7. HP is the manufacturer and it preinstalled several additional games in addition to the standard windows ones, as well as "My HP Game Console," who plays games. I would like to uninstall the game Console and the games, but there is no visible way to do. I don't see any entries in programs and features for games or the Console. I think that she wouldn't just delete the files in Program Files (but I welcome contradiction). How can I remove this software?
