Most of the programs did delete but then it hit some Windows system files (Help, Bubble Breaker etc.) and warned that deleting them would make them unusable. I hit cancel.
As a test I did go back in there and deleted the "Help" file to see if just the dupe would go away but no, the whole help file appears to be deleted from the device.
The All Programs list still shows some dupes, basically everything listed in the Programs folder that is a system file. Those appear to be the 'real' files, do you know where to find and delete the duplicate entries to these? Thanks again. |
Once you dump the Start Menu dupes, soft reset to force the All Programs list to refresh.
As for the "system" files... they're only marked that way if they were included in the original setup. They are safe to delete.
