Google Folder

Hi,

Is it safe to delete a Google Folder located in my Program files?
I don't rely on anything associated with google except for the default search providers within the browsers.

Also which of these programs are safe to uninstall please?

If you are not using any Google software then you can delete that folder. As for the other stuff, don't delete any of it.

In the future, if unsure if a file or folder can be deleted or not, simply rename it first. That's what I do all the time. But do not radically change the name or you might forget the original name. So I just append info on the end that will get my attention next time I am looking in that folder.

For example,

filename.exe I will rename to filename.exe-delete-8-2-12
foldername I will rename to foldername-delete-8-2-12

Then I just use my computer as I normally would. If something ends up broken, I can simply rename it back. By putting the word delete and today's date, then, next week, next month or next year when I stumble on that renamed file/folder, I can easily see what my intent was, and I can see how long it has been renamed - thus telling me if safe to delete or not.
