Hi fellow CC forum friends. Am attaching 3 jpeg images of portions of screen shots of my listings of \Programs and Features. There are very many CC apps most all that they have offered up while I have been with them.There are some that I opted not to have but very few of those. I believe that much of this unused apps in my computer clutter it up and slow it down and possibly cause problems. Which would you guys recommend removing and keeping?

You could start a CoffeeCup Software Museum! That is really an amazing collection Greg.

Of the apps showing on Img 1 I would definitely keep
Direct FTP
Email Designer
Form Designer
Html Editor
I also sometimes use Image Mapper
As to Free viewer, Zip Wizzard, MP3 rip and burn and Pix converter I'm not sure. If they work, you may keep them. If they are flash based, get rid of them.

On Img 2:
Keep the following:
Site Designer
Sitemapper
Sonar
Web Form Builder
If you still have sites made with RSD, maybe keep the latest version of that.

Keep the following:
Website Access Manager
Color Schemer
Insight.

I don't quite remember if the Video reorder was flash based. If it wasn't and if it works, you could keep it.

For any programs (CoffeeCup or otherwise) which haven't been used for ages, but about which there is any doubt, one could simply save the installation file and uninstall the program. That gives the best of both worlds.

Thank you all for all of the responses, I will follow and put them into effect. There are a pretty large number of other CC apps I have that are not in this computer, sure that they are in my old computer records somewhere. Most of the CC apps that I have purchased I have never used. Some of them went out of support or were ended before I ever used them. Now before I purchase a new or upgraded CC app I ask questions so as to be making an informed decision on the purchase. I do not believe that CC's marketing info given gives me enough information to make an informed decision. I have one web site which is my own and I have had for years, it seems whenever I need to work on it I have to learn an entirely new system or method and make a new purchase. Would be nice if the responsive apps would stabilize and just get upgraded rather than fundamentally re-made so much.

Hi Greg,

As a second suggestion I would not keep multiple versions of the same app either. Personally I just keep a copy of the latest in my backup folders.

And I usually keep the latest and the one before, just in case I have to go back for some reason

But not installed. I think that could cause more issues then its worth.
