Uninstall programs
With MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2011 you can list all installed programs and
uninstall them if you no longer need them. You can often make your PC faster
by deleting old programs that you no longer use.
Hint: It is important to uninstall a program that you want to remove from your
PC. It is insufficient to delete a program folder because this does not remove
hidden folders and erroneous Windows registry entries. This can cause
additional problems: The program cannot be reinstalled or will appear as still
installed. It might not be possible to install new program versions.
• When you open this area for the first time, MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2011
will scan your PC for installed programs and lists these in corresponding
categories: Audio & video, drivers, Internet, office, etc.
• When you select a program, a description will appear above.
Size: Indicates the overall size of the program folder and all hidden folders of
the program.
Installed on: Program installation date.
Used on: When was this program used for the last time?
If you click here, the program will be uninstalled. At the end, MAGIX
PC Check & Tuning 2011 checks if all program folders have been
removed correctly. If this is not the case, a dialog will appear and
you can remove the remaining files by hand.
Hint: Some programs create folders under "My documents", where project
files, etc. are saved. These folders will not be removed.
