Suppressions de Bloatbox Lenovo Thinkpad T440 - Windows 10 Pro

Hi

Pre-installed software on a computer, smartphone, or tablet is generally referred to as bloatware. While some can be useful and relevant, like antivirus solutions, others can be quite annoying.

Looking over your screenshot, I don't see any software to remove.

Hello billmaxime,

Regarding my administrative use of the PC as described, your response, I quote, "I don't see any software to uninstall," surprises me.

What could be the purpose of not uninstalling, for example:

1. Disney.3785F . . . .   ?

2. And all the Microsoft.Xbox from Xbox.TCUI to XboxSpeechToTextOverlay?

@ +

Yes

Indeed, but you can simply disable them in the apps instead of uninstalling them if you want to use them in the future.

If in doubt, you can do an internet search to find out what these pre-installed apps are for.

PS: They are not from Lenovo, but from Microsoft.

See you

Hi again,

Alright, rather than removing them I can disable them in the applications, but for your information, all the apps except Avast Premium have been disabled at Windows startup for years.

But where can I disable the pre-installed apps as per my request, namely:

1. Disney.3785F . . . .   ?

2. And all the Microsoft.Xbox from Xbox.TCUI to XboxSpeechToTextOverlay?

PS: Before my Bloatbox question on CCM, I had already uninstalled several pre-installed Lenovo applications that I found unnecessary using AdwCleaner.

look on this page for the procedure to uninstall applications you no longer want ==> click here

Again,

via your link I chose the 2nd solution which is:

Uninstall from the Settings page

1. Select Start, then select Settings > Apps > Apps & features.

2. Select the app to uninstall, then Uninstall

But how is it possible that all the apps I want to uninstall are all the same size, only 16 KB?

If I uninstall all these 16 KB, will I really uninstall the XYZ MB apps, or just remove shortcuts to the XYZ MB or GB apps that won't be deleted?

At full speed!

re

what is XYZ Mb?

Hello billmaxime,

XYZ Mb means, for example, the size of an application of 512 Megabytes or 728 Mb or even 985 Megabytes.

In other words, I would like to know if by uninstalling all the apps that happen to be the same size of only 16 Ko, will all the apps that would logically have different sizes in Megabytes actually be uninstalled, resulting in freeing up space on my 166 GB SSD from 2012.

See you later

hi

the applications you are going to uninstall will free up space on the 128GB SSD

you can also install one larger capacity SSD and reinstall W10

and yes, the size of the application doesn't matter, whether it's 16KB or more, it will be uninstalled

PS: check the function of the applications you want to uninstall before executing the operation

see you later

Hello,

1. How do you know that the applications I'm going to uninstall will free up space on the 128 GB SSD?

2. For my first attempt, I'm uninstalling "Solitaire and Casual Games," which supposedly has a size of 16 KB.

3. Please show me the path to this application using Explorer so I can see its actual size, which will be part of the 128 GB.

4. For your information, my SSD on Lenovo T440 of 166 GB still has 35 GB of free space, so I don't need a new SSD yet, as professionally I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T460 and also a Lenovo Thinkpad P51 bought new.

BUT what interests me to advance my IT knowledge is to uninstall what takes up space on the SSD and that I haven't used since 2012 ;

it’s like cleaning out the basement of my house and motorcycle workshop and throwing away (deleting) all the big things never used since the purchase of the house (PC) in 2012

at "full speed" in reverse on a Yamaha WR 450 F from 2008 - 60 HP.

With Windows applications, it's more complex regarding space savings.

I just looked at the Windows Media Player that I don't use, and here's what I see.

And for Solitaire and Casual Games that I started and updated.

3. Thank you for showing me the path to this application's location using Explorer so I can see its actual size that will be part of the 128 GB.

You have the size of the applications in settings ==> apps.

4) Ok for your hard drive.
