There's more to it than that.
System files can be damaged even by the removal of crapware, registry keys remain. It needs to be sequenced as shown in

You can try that first to see if it meets the standard for native Windows 7 of "always instantaneous, never hangs" on adequate hardware. If not you have a better option.
