Opportunities and disadvantages of Viber

Among the disadvantages of this in general good messenger For free communication we can highlight the impossibility of compiling it on java phones(this new one is simply not installed on such a “shell” progressive messenger). “So what phones can this software be installed on?” - you ask. It’s simple: for all of the above, as well as for those for which you can find the installation file on the Internet (it is recommended to use only trusted sites).

If you have - Nokia phone(Nokia) with Windows OS, read the instructions for Windows, if Symbian - perhaps on the Internet you will find a program for this operating system. The second option may also be suitable for owners of Samsung smartphones.

Order in the computer is the key to user well-being - no glitches, maximum performance. And it’s visually clear where which file is located, what programs are installed, and what they are for.

But if, on the contrary, chaos reigns on PC disks... this is definitely a problem. But, fortunately, it is fixable. Any obscenity (files and folders, unnecessary programs) can be removed from your computer manually and using special utilities. For information on how to properly and quickly clean hard drives, read this article.

All in one fell swoop, out of sight...

Before globally deleting everything on your computer, you must, of course, first look at all the partitions one more time. Suddenly, somewhere in a folder, there was something useful: photos, videos, text files with passwords and logins, reports or other valuable documents.

When you are 100% sure that you do not regret anything from the existing data in the directories, start cleaning.

Option No. 1: if the disk is not a system one

If you need to quickly “unload” disk partition, on which there is no system, that is, to delete everything from it completely, do not bother yourself with painstakingly dragging files into the trash, but simply take it and format it.

1. Click right click on the disk from which you want to delete all files.

2. In the system menu that appears, click “Format”.

3. In the formatting settings panel, in the option “ File system", set the value to "NTFS", in "Cluster Size" - 4096 bytes.

  • Windows 7: open the Start menu; dial in cmd line and press "Enter".
  • Windows 8: Right-click on the “Windows” icon (the very first icon in the taskbar).

2. At the command line, enter the command:

format:
(for example, to format drive D you need to enter - format d:)

3. Press "Enter".

4. At the “Start formatting…” prompt, type the letter Y (Yes) and press “Enter” again.

Option No. 2: formatting drive C (system partition)

The partition on which Windows is stored cannot be deleted using the method described above. Drive C is formatted using special utility from the installation disk of the operating system and then, accordingly, the OS is installed.

1. Insert into DVD drive installation disk Windows.

2. In the Start panel, in the Shut down menu, launch the Restart function.

3. While the computer is restarting, hold down the “F8” key.

Upon completion of the operation, all files, programs and other elements from drive C will be deleted, and you can immediately begin installing the OS completely.

How to remove everything unnecessary from drive C?

Selective cleaning system partition should be carried out regularly. This requirement is primarily related to the specifics of operating Windows. (During its operation unnecessary files accumulate randomly in separate directories, without user intervention). And then, you risk losing less useful content and valuable data (that is, remove something very necessary from the C drive during the formatting process).

Method No. 1: using the standard function

1. Run the computer system cleanup utility.

  • Windows 7: open "Start"; V search bar enter “disk cleanup”; Select drive C from the drop-down menu; click “ok”;
  • Windows 8: right-click on the “Windows” shortcut (in the taskbar); click "Find"; in the panel that opens, type “disk cleanup”; In the menu, click “Free up disk space...”.

2. Wait for the directory analysis to complete (on average, the utility takes 2-3 minutes to complete this task).

3. In the settings window, on the “Disk Cleanup” tab, check the boxes with a mouse click next to the items that need to be deleted or cleaned.

4. In the window that opens, click “Delete files”.

Advice! You can get rid of control points OS recovery (if you don't plan to use them!). Go to the “Advanced” tab and in the “Recovery...” block, click the “Clear” button. In the additional window, confirm the launch of the function.

Destroying useless media content

Remember Plyushkin from the book “Dead Souls” by N.V. Gogol? Well, mountains, or rather tens and hundreds of gigabytes, of seemingly useful, but seemingly useless content on the disks of your PC clearly indicate that you are very similar to this literary hero...

Books, films, TV series, huge software distributions, games that are not particularly needed take up precious free space. disk space. And they also burden the user with the need to constantly increase it when something else needs to be loaded.

1. Right-click on the file or folder you want to destroy. And then in context menu click "Delete".

2. When you finish cleaning, don’t forget to empty the Trash. Also, hover over it, right-click and select “Empty Trash”.

Getting rid of unnecessary programs

Standard uninstallation

2. Click the “Uninstall a program” section.

3. In the list of available in the system software Right-click the unnecessary program.

4. Click the “Delete” option that appears.

5. Follow the instructions of the uninstaller.

Removing software using special utilities

(instructions for using Soft Organizer)
If for some reason a useless application cannot be removed from the PC in the standard way, or you want to perform a more thorough cleaning of disk directories, it is more advisable to use uninstaller programs (for example, Revo Uninstaller, Uninstall Tool). They not only remove software elements, but also neutralize their remains in other folders in the system registry.

Let's consider the uninstallation option using the Soft Organizer utility:

1. Click on the application you want to remove in the software catalog.

2. Click the “Uninstall a program” button.

3. Perform a standard uninstallation, and then remove the remains of the application (follow the prompts of Soft Organizer).

Happy cleaning! Don't be lazy, your diligence and efforts will pay off handsomely. The computer will work faster, you will spend a minimum of time searching for useful data in the directories of disk partitions.

Remove a program from your computer- it would seem, what could be simpler? Standard using Windows this is done through a special item in the Control Panel.

For Windows 7 And Windows 8 let's go:

Start - Control Panel - Programs and Features (when viewing Large/Small Icons)

Start - Control Panel - Uninstall a program (when viewing "Category")


For Windows XP:
Start - Control Panel - Add and Remove Programs.


The uninstaller included with the program itself will launch, and you can safely remove it, following the prompts in the window.


You can also remove a program using a special file, which is most often called Uninstall and is located in the program folder in Programm Files. But this method is for perverts, more inquisitive users, and also if on the list installed programs There is no name for this program in the Control Panel.


This is how most novice users delete it. And it’s good if they know where this item is located in the Control Panel. And it happens that they don’t even know. But that's another story...

But this method has one drawback. The fact is that during installation, the program not only creates its own folders and files (which can be immediately seen in Programm Files, on the Desktop, in the Start menu, Panels quick launch and so on. - depends on the program and as you want), but also writes its paths in, adds itself to startup, creates additional folders, adds an item to the context menu, creates and much more. It depends on the program itself. All this together is often called “tails” or “garbage”.
And when you remove programs in the standard way, it is not always possible to clean these very tails, even if the removal program asks you to reboot (and I strongly recommend agreeing with this point). But the program is still deleted, but the garbage remains. You don't notice him because he doesn't bother you. And over time, this junk becomes quite large (with frequent installation and removal of programs) and as a result, the computer begins to “slow down”, conflicts, disk space decreases, etc.
For these purposes, special cleaning programs have been invented, but about them in another article. And now I'll give you a couple of good ones free programs with a Russian interface that will help you fully delete the program along with its tails and remnants.

IObit Uninstaller- a wonderful program for removing programs that does not require installation.


to select Russian language, click on the link above More- Language - Russian


An excellent program that can easily replace standard deletion programs. You can “throw it” onto a flash drive.
You can simply put it on your desktop and run it when you delete it.
What else is good about it:
  • Creates a restore point every time before deleting, so in case incorrect deletion or if you deleted the wrong thing, then you can return everything as it was by performing a system rollback.
  • You can forcefully remove even those programs that are running and standard removal does not allow you to do this.
  • Deletes the tails of those programs that were deleted in the standard way.
  • It is possible to remove multiple programs at once with one click.
  • Can be deleted Windows updates(all or certain).
  • Sorts programs by recent and occupied space.
  • You can find out information about the program on the Internet (if you don’t know what it’s for) by right-clicking and selecting “Search online” in the context menu.
    and much more interesting things.

    When deleting, it will display a confirmation message, then delete and ask you to " Powerful scanning" in which it searches for all the garbage left over from the program.

    Video from Americans about this program

    You can download this wonderful program from the link from.

    Revo Uninstaller- this product is much larger than the previous one and the size installation file honoring 5 times more. And all this thanks to its components:

  • Auto Start Manager– managing startup programs in Windows.
  • Windows Tools Manager– calling standard system utilities Windows.
  • Junk Files Cleaner– search and deletion not necessary files.
  • Browsers History Cleaner– clearing history in IE, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Netscape. Deletes temporary files and , Index.dat files and all history (pages, downloads and form completions).

  • Windows History Cleaner– cleaning system history, temporary files and other traces of work on the computer.
  • Unrecoverable Delete Tool– securely delete files and folders without the possibility of recovery.


    In general, it’s just a combine, the basis of which is to remove programs, and then auxiliary modules which are described above.
    And everything would be fine, but such a program simply cannot be without a catch, and there is one - this is that it is free for 30 days. But I think this time will be enough for you to do everything you wanted with its help.

    Video from the program developers about its innovations

    You can download a program for “smart” removal of programs along with garbage using the link from.

    GeekUninstaller - a program for removing programs and their “tails”. It does not require installation (portable) and works under all Windows versions 7/8/XP/Vista/2003/2008.

    The program interface is incredibly simple:


    It immediately shows a list of installed programs. Below there is a search by name (you need to enter). The lower bar shows how many programs there are and their occupied volume.
    The list of programs can be exported to HTML file for later viewing in .

    On the menu Actions You can find out the program entries in and the folder where the file is located (they will open themselves when selected).


    In addition, you can delete an entry from this list and search in the search engine Google system the name of this program.
    You can simply uninstall the program ( Actions -> Uninstallation), then the removal wizard for the program itself will start and will delete it in the standard way, and then the program will display a message about possible “tails” and offer to delete them.
    You can also choose Forced deletion , which is useful for removing programs that require a password for removal or when the program cannot be removed using the standard method.
    As a result of these options, scanning will start


    then a window will appear containing a report on the "tails" found


    Well, after pressing the button Delete the program will report successful completion


    The overall impression of the program is quite good. Especially considering that you don’t need to install it and can carry it with you. Everything you need is present and removed efficiently and completely.

    I will add that it is better to use programs to completely remove programs.

  • We'll have a lot of work to do in this lesson! We will get rid of those that are NOT needed, - unnecessary programs.

    If you have been using a computer for a long time, have installed different programs, or if someone has installed programs for you, then this lesson will help you put things in order when it comes to different programs.

    In the last lesson, we talked about the need to clean the computer from various “garbage”, i.e. from accumulated unnecessary files and records. The same applies to programs. Many users may have a bunch of programs installed on their computer that are either very rarely or never used.

    Or maybe several are installed similar programs, for example, several video or audio players, which means some of them are not necessary at all.

    For low-power computers and/or for computers with few free space, - getting rid of unnecessary programs will be very helpful. And in this lesson we'll do that.

    First there will be theory. Then, as always, a practical task.

    Theoretical part

    Many novice users use Incorrect deletion programs from a computer. They understand where a program was installed on the computer (for example, by default in the folder Program Files on system disk, which was mentioned in the first lesson) and when some program is no longer needed, simply find the folder with the files of this program and delete it:

    Of course, in this way, most of the files of this uninstalled program will be deleted. But, at the same time, there may still be some files on the computer that were placed in other places on the computer when installing the program (besides the Program Files folder). And if they are not removed too, then they can interfere proper operation computer.

    For example, visibly This may affect the performance of the computer when many programs have been uninstalled incorrectly.

    So in this tutorial we will first talk about correct removal programs from a computer. Let's look at removing programs first. using standard methods, available without installation additional funds on correct removal of programs.

    And then let's talk about even more reliable and convenient way uninstalling programs using the one you already have CCleaner programs, which we used in the last lesson.

    1. Removalprograms through the Start menu

    If, when installing a program, it was specified in the installation settings that shortcuts for launching the program and its uninstallation (removal) should also be placed in the Start menu, then you can uninstall the program through the uninstall shortcut (if it is present there).

    As an example, let's take a look at the shortcuts in the Start menu of some installed programs. Note that some programs ( AIMP3 And Any Video Converter) there are uninstallation files Uninstall. When you click on this uninstall shortcut, the removal of the selected program will begin, and you just need to follow the suggested steps:

    But we also see that some programs ( 7-Zip And avast! Free Antivirus ) there are no shortcuts for removing them from the computer.

    Therefore, you need to use some other way to remove programs.

    Let's move on to consider the second method of removing programs from a computer - through Program Files.

    2. Removalprograms through the Program Files folder

    Programs are installed where we specify them during installation, and usually this is in the folder Program Files on the system disk, i.e. on the disk where the operating system is installed.

    Let's find, for example, a folder with files 7-Zip archiver. IN in this case The file that triggers the removal of this program from the computer is designated as: uninstall.exe:

    Other programs may have something similar: uninstal.exe, uninst.exeunins.exe or something similar, where there is a mention of uninstallation ( uninstall) with extension added at the end .exe.

    To delete not the desired program, just click on this file and follow the suggested removal steps, usually you just need to confirm that you want to remove this program.

    As we can see from the example of this 7-Zip program, we did not find the option to delete it in the Start menu, but in the folder Program Files she is.

    But for some programs, even in this folder we may not find the option to delete them. So, for example, at avast! Free Antivirus we do not find either the uninstall shortcut in the Start menu or the uninstal file in the folder Program Files.

    How then to remove such programs?

    For example, this can be done by special means Windows to remove programs.

    3. Removalprograms via Control Panel

    Go through the Start menu to Control Panel:

    After this, a list of programs installed on the computer will be provided, in which we can select the program that we want to remove and click on the link Delete/Change, and then confirm the deletion:

    As you can see, in this case we have already found how to remove a program when it is not possible to remove it using one of the first two methods described above.

    We used all these three methods without installation on the computer. additional applications. And any of these methods is, of course, better than simply deleting the folder with all installed files programs, like this:

    In general, I’ll mention again that it’s wrong to delete it this way! It is better to use one of the above methods. But, it’s even better (more convenient and efficient) to remove programs using special programs, which we’ll talk about later.

    4. Freeprogram for uninstalling programs

    According to some experienced users, standard deletion in the above methods still does not completely remove all files related to the program being deleted. Therefore it is recommended to use special programs(free) type CCleaner or Revo Uninstaller.

    Revo Uninstaller is a little more difficult to use for novice users than CCleaner. And since you already have CCleaner installed, all that remains is to consider how to remove programs using it.

    In CCleaner, go to the section Service -> Uninstalling programs, select the program you want to remove, click on Uninstallation and confirm the deletion:

    Note: Please note that there is also a button Delete. This function deletes the selected program only from this list installed programs, but the program itself still remains on the computer. So, to remove a program from your computer, use only the button Uninstallation.

    Remove programs this way (with using CCleaner) is more convenient and effective than the above methods. But it’s still useful to know about them.

    5. What can be deleted and what cannot?

    Of course, some people may have doubts about some programs whether to delete them or not. Someone will definitely think: “Now I’ll delete something and suddenly something will happen to the computer, for example, it will stop working normally.”

    Indeed, this can happen, but only in cases where the user deletes something he doesn’t know! So here's a simple rule:

    Never delete something you are not sure about!

    How then do you know what can be deleted and what cannot?

    Since there are a huge variety of different programs and everyone may have their own need for using certain programs, therefore there is no standard solution, which means that you need to analyze your installed programs.

    How to do it?

    As was said earlier in program CCleaner In chapter Service -> Uninstalling programs, a list of installed programs is displayed. There, programs installed on your computer can be organized by Name, To the publisher, Installation date And Size, which the program occupies on the computer.

    For example, click on installation date and the entire list was sorted by the order in which the programs were installed from the very beginning to the end. Click on it again, and the programs that were most recently installed will go first:

    These parameters can help determine what to delete and what not to delete.

    1. By name(Installed programs). Everything is simple here - by the names of the programs and the icons of these programs, you yourself can see the programs you are familiar with and decide whether you need them or not.
    2. Information from the column Publisher can also tell you for some programs what kind of program it is. For example, if the publisher is Microsoft Corporation, then you should pay attention to these programs, as they may be important (but not necessarily).
    3. Order by column installation date can help draw conclusions about when a particular program was installed. If it was installed recently, it means that the computer worked without it before. Or vice versa, if some programs are installed at the very beginning (immediately after installing the operating system), then they can be very important. For example, these can be programs related to the video card, sound card, webcam.
    4. And ordering to size It can also help to pay attention first to those programs that take up a lot of space.

    Let's look at an example:

    Let's say you bought a laptop secondhand and want to put things in order with regard to installed programs.

    You also have your own printer, well, say, from Samsung. You no longer have any printers or scanners.

    In the list of installed programs, did you notice that there is installed applications different devices manufacturer Canon. And thus, you understand that the person from whom you bought the laptop used one or more devices from Canon.

    And since you don’t have these devices, you don’t need these programs. This means that you can safely get rid of them by deleting, i.e. uninstalling each one in turn:

    If the system displays a message that to completely remove a program you need to restart the computer, you can agree to restart, that’s normal!

    But what if some programs are not familiar to you?

    In this case, you can simply use the search function in any browser and look on the Internet what programs you have installed on your computer and how important they are to you.

    To do this, click on the program name right mouse button and select:

    An additional window will appear with the program name highlighted. Right-click on it and select. The copied name will be in the Clipboard (in the temporary memory of the computer). Since we didn’t rename anything, we click Cancel:

    Now we go to any browser that we use to view sites and in the search simply paste the copied name of the program ( right click ->Insert) and carry out a search.

    The search engine will give you the answer and you can go to the very first answers and read what kind of program it is in order to have an idea whether you need it or not.

    As a rule, in search engine already in the first issues of requests in brief description (1 ) it will be written what kind of program it is. If this information is not enough, you can follow the links provided ( 2 ) for more details:

    Of course, if many programs are not familiar to you, then researching what each program means may take you a lot of time for the first time. But, on the other hand, you will know what programs are installed on your computer and will be able to get rid of unnecessary things with understanding.

    Practical task for this lesson

    Using the program CCleaner -> Service -> Uninstalling programs, analyze which programs you don’t need and remove them, i.e. uninstall their.

    Once again I want to emphasize that if you doubt any action, then it is better not to do it.

    If you don’t find out what kind of program it is, don’t delete it!

    The information in this lesson only provides necessary knowledge and a guide on how you can find out the purpose of any program and remove it correctly. And now further decisions about the removal of certain programs - you decide personally!

    Your report on this lesson

    After completing the lesson, write about your results:

    — How many programs have you gotten rid of?
    — How easy/difficult was this lesson for you?

    If in relation to any certain programs there are serious doubts about whether to delete them or not, i.e. if after research you couldn’t figure it out yourself, you can indicate them. Perhaps I know, or if I don’t know, then I’ll look for information about these programs myself and answer what they are intended for, so that you can decide whether they should be deleted or not.

    But please indicate no more than 3 programs. After all, this is a training in which the main task: teach you to do everything yourself!
