For Windows 7 there are thousands of programs with the mostdifferent functions. Selecting the right application from the first is not easy, so many users usually install several programs with similar features at the same time to try each one and decide on the best option. But what about other applications that are no longer needed? About how to uninstall the program from Windows 7, we will discuss in this article.

Removing the program itself

Some programs are created in the menu during installation"Start" a separate folder, in which there is not only a shortcut to launch, but a link to uninstall the program. To use this link, open the "Start" menu, go to "All Programs", find the application folder you want to delete, and see if there is a link "Delete [application name]" or "Uninstall [application name]". If it is - click this link and follow the instructions of the wizard to remove it.

Uninstalling the operating system

There are no separate links for deletingall applications, so the easiest way to uninstall the program in Windows 7 is to use the mechanisms built into the operating system itself. To do this, open the "Start" menu and select "Control Panel". In the Control Panel, find the "Programs" section and click the "Uninstall the program" link.

The "Programs and Features" window opens. Select the application you want to delete and click the "Delete" button that appears. In some cases, this will be the "Delete / Modify" button, and then in the opened wizard window you will need to specify what you want to do - reinstall the program or delete it. Select the desired option and follow the prompts of the wizard.

Deleting with CCleaner

There is also a useful program CCleaner,which allows you to keep the operating system clean and tidy, delete unnecessary temporary files and clean the registry. It also has the function of removing programs, and sometimes with CCleaner you can get rid of even applications that are not deleted through the standard "Programs and components" tool.

Download the free version of CCleaner fromofficial website. Run the application and go to the "Tools" section, and in it - to the "Remove Programs" item. Select the program that you want to uninstall, and click the Uninstall button, and then follow the instructions in the wizard. There is also a "Delete" button-it deletes information about the program from the Windows registry and can be useful if uninstallation by conventional means fails.
