How can you delete programs on your computer?

Programs can be deleted like any other file on your computer. This is because a program is nothing more than one or more files written in a special way, which provide step-by-step instructions to your computer's processor. These instructions, when done correctly, result in what you see a program 'doing' on your computer screen. This is true for all operating systems. What differs between them, however, is how/where the applications are stored, and therefore how one would go about deleting the program off the computer.
