Bloatware & Junk Removal
Did your new computer come loaded with 'trial' apps you didn't ask for? We surgically remove bloatware to free up memory and stop annoying pop-ups.
Reclaim Your Computer's Resources
It is a sad fact of the PC industry that a brand new £500 laptop often runs slower than a 3-year-old one. Why? Bloatware.
Manufacturers like HP, Dell, and Lenovo are paid millions by software companies to pre-install 30-day trials of antivirus, games, VPNs, and "Registration Tools" on your new system. These programs launch at startup, consume your RAM, eat your battery life, and pester you for credit card details.
Our "Decrapifier" Process
We don't just uninstall these programs via the Control Panel (which often leaves background services running). We use advanced uninstallation scripts to:
- Remove Manufacturer Utilities: Things like "HP Support Assistant" or "Dell Customer Connect" that constantly run in the background.
- Uninstall Trialware: McAfee, Norton, Office 365 trials, and wild-tangent games.
- Disable Telemetry: We stop Windows from sending excessive usage data to Microsoft, which saves internet bandwidth.
- Clean the Start Menu: We remove the "Candy Crush" and "Tik Tok" shortcuts that Microsoft pins to your menu automatically.
Startup Optimization
After removing the junk, we manually audit your Startup items. Apps like Spotify, Steam, Skype, and Adobe Updater love to start with Windows, adding minutes to your boot time. We disable these from auto-starting without deleting them, so they are there when you need them but don't slow you down when you don't.
The Result
The difference is often shocking. A laptop that took 2 minutes to boot might now boot in 15 seconds. The fan noise decreases because the CPU isn't working to run 20 background ad-bots. Your battery life extends significantly. We essentially turn your "store-bought" restricted computer into a "Pro" clean machine.
Browser Cleanup
Bloatware isn't just in Windows; it's in your browser. We strip out "Search Assistant" toolbars, homepage hijackers (like Yahoo Search redirectors), and coupon clippers that monitor your shopping. We restore Google/Bing as your default and ensure your browsing is private.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you delete anything I need?
No. We know the difference between a critical system driver and a piece of marketing junk. We are surgical in what we remove. If we are unsure about a specific unique app, we will ask you first.
Does this void my warranty?
Absolutely not. The hardware warranty is unaffected by what implementation software is running on it. in fact, manufacturers support clean installs.
