  1. List of Microsoft "stuff"


    When I click on the start menu, I see a very large amount of Microsoft. Of this huge list, what is absolutly essential? And what can I delete/uninstall safely that won't affect my PC? Also, of all the "Microsoft stuff" that's in Control Panel that "can be" deleted, which items are needed and which are "nice to have" and/or can be removed? Example: Microsoft Essentials is a keeper. And I'd like to get rid of Edge and/or IE permanently. There are too many browsers available and I only need 2 or 3, and both Edge and IE are "just taking up space". And why do I need "whiteboard" and "messaging"? I've had this PC for more than 5 years and have never used either of them. Also, Visual C+/there's 3 of them? And like I just said - they just take up space!

    :)
