If you are using a PC (non-Mac) using Windows you can do the following:

  • click Start
  • from the list, choose (click on) Control Panel
  • choose Add or Remove Programs
  • find the program name in the list of programs
  • click on that program - more information on that application, including a button marked 'Remove' or 'Change/Remove' should appear
  • click Remove
  • You may be asked to verify the choice (eg by clicking Okay) or to choose between uninstalling and some other action.

Note: Deleting the application icon from the desktop does not delete the application. Going to the Program Files folder and deleting the folder for that application may remove key components of the application, but the only way to completely uninstall all parts of the application is from the Control Panel as described above.

Someone may want to add information for Mac or other Operating Systems.

To delete an app from your iPod touch:

Press and hold the app icon until all of the apps start to shake, then you should see an "x" in the top corner, pressing that button will delete the app on your device.

If you have synced your device with iTunes since you downloaded the app or if you downloaded it on your computer, the app will still be in your iTunes library.

If it's a PC that's running Windows (XP, Vista, 7) then you click on the Start menu button and go into the control panel -- then from there select Add/Remove Programs (Windows XP) or Programs & Features (Vista/7) then click on the thing you want to remove and click the uninstall button.

If the apps dont have any entries in the start menu then they may be malware, in this case you may want to download an anti-malware program to remove them.

You drag the icon to the trash can located on your dock. Some apps that come with the Mac OS, like iCal or Terminal, cannot be deleted. They are there for good.

If by clean you mean delete unneeded files, I use a commerical on my personal computer.

Old computers can generally be sped up significantly by performing a factory reset (WARNING: this will DELETE ALL OF YOUR FILESexcept for the operating system).
