Are these programs essential, useful or not needed on a laptop please?
I've been given an Acer Aspire V5-537 (Model MS2361) laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium and have been busy installing Avast, Malwarebytes Anti-Mal, CCleaner and SuperAntiSpyware which I use on my PC and so have got rid of a lot of obvious rubbish.
But, I am not sure what to do with this ....
~ Eurosport Player (not a prog but a desktop icon)
and the following programs ....
~ Atheros Driver Installation
~ Atheros Bluetooth Suite (64)
~ Acer Identity Card
~ Acer Instant Update Service
~ Acer Registration (which told me it has been completed when I opened it)
~ Acer Screensaver
~ Acer Updater
~ Synaptics Pointing Device
~ Dolby Advanced Studio
~ NTI Media Maker 9
~ Win Check.
I don't do gaming and really only use the computer (with Firefox) to eBay, Facebook, a few forums, also to do BigJig jigsaws and to listen to audio-books on You-Tube.
I am keen to run as lean'n'clean as I can so would appreciate any advice or help please.
