Toshiba Satellite L505-10x

[Patrick Lumpiest]

Hello,

This is my first laptop and I need help; there was a lot of pre-installed software in the laptop all ready, which I think would be called bloatware, but I'm not sure. See, there seems to be a Toshiba something program for most of the laptops features and so I have no idea what I can and can't remove. If anyone who has this laptop could guide me through the steps, I'd really appreciate it. The only thing I am sure of removing is McAfee (I have MSE installed, and McAfee's expired ).

Cheers,
Patrick

P.S: I heard having two AVs installed will slow down your computer - since I have both MSE an McAfee installed, does this hold true with my laptop as well? Does that mean I might see a performance boost by removing one of them?
