It's gotta go. It's constantly doing stuff in the background, gumming up the system with scans, checks, backups and who knows what else. The other day, IE crashed three times before I noticed that a Dell program was running system checks on all of my drives. Of coarse, I couldn't abort it and had to end it in task manager.
I need to either uninstall or at least disable auto-start on ALL of the Dell software that came with the computer. I know how to do it via the control panel, but I just need to know if doing so will screw anything up.
Which software are you needing to uninstall? What OS do you have installed? Below is information on how to remove Dell System Manager. If there is some other Dell software you need removed look in the add/remove programs section in control panel to uninstall.
you can uninstall Dell System Manager from your computer by using the Add/Remove Program feature in the Window's Control Panel.
On the Start menu (for Windows 8, right-click the screen's bottom-left corner), click Control Panel, and then, under Programs, do one of the following:
Windows Vista/7/8: Click Uninstall a Program.
Windows XP: Click Add or Remove Programs.
When you find the program Dell System Manager, click it, and then do one of the following:
Windows Vista/7/8: Click Uninstall.
Windows XP: Click the Remove or Change/Remove tab (to the right of the program).
Follow the prompts. A progress bar shows you how long it will take to remove Dell System Manager.
Yes, I am familiar with how to unistall software in general. I just wanted to be sure that doing so won't mess anything up. I wasn't sure how dependant the system is on the Dell software. If you say removing it won't hurt anything, I will proceed.
