Keep your PC clean

Computers are no different from closets,bookshelves or pantries:They accumulate old,unwanted purchases.
A program that you no longer need will only take up valuable disk space,as well as a spot in Windows Start menu or a Mac Applications folder.
So every few months,inventory the software on your machine,decide which programs you still need and get rid of the ones you don't.
On a Mac,you usually only need to drag unwanted programs icons to Trash,but in Windows you'll need to open the Control Panel and click "Add or Remove Programs"to uninstall excess applications.
A system-cleaner application such as the free CCleaner
can help find any program leftovers that uninstallers didn't clean up:Click the Registry button,let it scan your system and click the "Fix selected issues...."button.
