Default "Decrapify" your Windows PC

Norton=EWWWW
McAfee=DDDDDX
Microsoft Office Trials= -Brings out a cannon-
Toolbars=D:<

Of course with that new PC you'll need to decrapify it. But where to start, there's like >10 of them, and the bulit-in Add/Remove is uberslow. But PCDecrapifier to the rescue!!!

PCDecrapifier is a standalone tool for finding the most useless trialware and crapware on your PC in one shot and will remove it for you. Excellent for those new Sony or HP PCs. Those are the biggest baddies in bloat of all <_<

It won't know the difference between a paid version and a trial version, so be smart and at least look at what you're removing



(If you look at the user submitted crapplications, Windows Vista is a major popular one... hmmm...)

I wonder if this works for programs where you have to download the uninstaller. Yeah, seriously? Download an uninstaller? Oye! Was the case with some antivirus (Norton I think) on a laptop I helped setup and got running.

Why HP and other manufacturers feel the need to bundle their computers with their own set of software, and even develop it in the first place, is an annoying question to wonder about.

No, I do not believe you download the uninstaller.

They bundle all kinds of bloat and crapware so they make more money :P

More money from what??? As far as I can tell it's just HP's or whoever else's version of Windows Media Center, Security, or whatever else.

Adding all the trials and crapware makes them more money.
