Any easy way to clean up the app list for speeding up the PC?

Brass Contributor

It is a huge app list from checking the task manager. And I don't even know some of the apps. How to delete them in bulk?

Go to Control Panel and uninstall the apps you don't use any more.
Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features (on Windows 10/11) or Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a Program (on older versions of Windows).

Review the list of installed programs and uninstall any that you no longer use. Be cautious not to remove system-critical programs or drivers.
Use Dsik Cleanup to remove temporary files, system files, and empty the Recycle Bin. Type Disk Claenup in the Start menu, select the drive to clean, and then choose what you want to remove.
Another choice is using the app uninstaller, which is fast and help you remove app that can't be deleted from Control Panel settings.
Make a backup of the data and start a clean install. You will see the background processes reduced sharply!

To bulk delete apps on Windows:

1. Settings:

2. Go to Settings > Apps > Installed apps. Select and uninstall unwanted apps.

 

PowerShell (for bulk removal):

Run PowerShell as admin and use:

Get-AppxPackage *appname* | Remove-AppxPackage

This allows you to uninstall multiple apps quickly.
