TuneUp Offers Tips to Help Consumers Decrapify Their New PCs

What: When consumers purchase brand new PCs, they expect optimal performance and speed; however, new computers are typically overloaded with pre-installed applications and ads, such as trial versions of software, browser toolbars and website shortcuts. These additions, commonly referred to as “crapware”, are often useless and can slow PCs down—why is there so much stuff on new computers?

On its blog, TuneUp answers this common question and offers tips to help consumers get rid of all the pre-installed software that comes on new computers. The company explains how this issue can be solved with a program called PC Decrapifier, a tool that detects and removes software trials and other unnecessary products. It also outlines how TuneUp Utilities can help users enjoy their new computers without these trial products and ads cluttering up their machines.

Who: Any PC user with Windows 7, Vista or XP who is looking to get rid of annoying programs that come pre-installed on new computers. The tips are easily understood by anyone, regardless of technical background.
