Hey ladies and gents,

 

Just got myself a new Asus fx502vm, buncha bloatware on it. I was wondering what you guys recommended to remove or if I should just do a wipe of everything. 

 

I'll attach a screenshot of the programs installed.

 

EDIT: I've already some obviously useless shit like evernote, fox pdf, etc

yup, go to settings, start fresh without keeping any files. 

Fresh start option from the security center mentions that it will keep store apps installed by my manufacturer. Shall I use the fresh start feature, or just a reset all personal files, etc
