    Hey everyone, so I just received my y510, and was wondering if anyone can refer me to, or let me know, all of the programs that can be removed safely off of the laptop? I have done a couple hours of googling and can not seem to find a list that can all be removed.

    You can delete just about everything that came pre loaded on the system. I personally did a new Windows installation so I could start fresh. If your computer is setup like mine your D drive will have folders with all of the drivers in case you need to reinstall or start over from scratch.
