    I think most of them you can, such as 90-day norton, google desktop, etc. these 3rd party softwares are paid to preinstalled on the laptop.

    some of the lenovo softwares you may want to keep them, such as disk keeper.

    It took much space not because of these softwares; it's because it automatically back up all the files on your computer. If you already backed up your data in an external hard drive, you can turn that off.
