Too slow - need to uninstall programs, but don't know what that is sure to uninstall

Hi, can someone please help me?  My windows vista computer is very very slow.  I had (apparently) Windows 8 here.  We're told to uninstall programs, but do not know what is safe to uninstall.  I defragmented and did a cleaning disc, but is still very slow.  Can someone help me please?
