    What you do is right, harmful.

    Hard disks are made up of service life, the more times they are used, the more reads and writes they are, the shorter the life of the hard disk will be, which is unavoidable, because everything has a day when it is used and broken. Excessive reads and writes will eventually lead to bad sectors on the hard drive. And if you often uninstall and install programs, the files on the hard disk will become more and more fragmented, there will be a lot of file fragments, read and write will be slowed down, and the life of the hard disk will be shortened.

    In fact, if you take care of it properly, the hard drive can still last for a long time:

    1.Do not turn on the computer within 30 seconds after shutting down, hibernating, or standby, as this will hurt the hard disk. As a last resort, do not suddenly lose power or reboot while your computer's hard drive is working.

    2.Do not move the computer when the hard disk is working, and prevent vibration after removing a few items from the hard disk.

    3.Do more hard drive maintenance work, such as disk scanning and disk defragmentation.

    4.If there are bad sectors on your hard drive, it means that your hard drive is about to die, use a partition tool to hide the bad sectors and back up important files.

    5.The most important point: do not format the hard drive casually, especially low-level formatting, this operation will shorten the life of the hard drive the most.

    The damage to the hard drive is not great, but the burden on the system is not small. Frequent installation of removal programs can create a large number of file fragments within the system, which can greatly reduce system performance. It is recommended to clean up the system disk fragments frequently, minimize the system junk, and thus make the system work more efficiently.

    It's okay, as long as you pay more attention to defragmentation.

    A hard drive can be used after 1,500 times. So it's not very good to install a removal program frequently.

    It's normal, just break the time to defragment the disk, it's fine.

    Probably not. It is equivalent to a normal read and write operation.

    But there are too many things to pack. Some junk files will be generated.

    Hope to clean up often. You can do it with software like Optimizer.

    Theoretically, it causes mechanical wear, but it is negligible.

    The physical reading and writing actions of the hard disk will reduce the life of the hard disk, and the defragmentation of the hard disk is the most extreme. Now the XP system doesn't need to do this. The previous win98 said otherwise.

    But hard disk error detection is the way it should be.

    As long as the general read/write disk is not read and written for more than dozens of minutes (such as BT), there is no major problem. Neither will the uninstaller.

    If the memory is too small, the operating system will frequently read and write the virtual memory on the hard disk.

    Therefore, increasing the memory capacity can better extend the life of the hard disk.

    Hard drives are afraid of vibrations and sudden power outages, especially when reading disks.

    Summary. Dear, A: Deleting the disk directly without uninstalling it will do a lot of harm.

    If there is an uninstaller, try to use the uninstaller, if there is no uninstaller, you can borrow a tool like Optimizer to uninstall the file! Don't damage the disk a lot if the application is forcefully removed.

    What happens if you delete the disk without unmounting.

    What to do.

    Dear, A: Deleting the disk directly without uninstalling it will do a lot of harm. If there is an uninstaller, try to use the uninstaller, if there is no uninstaller, you can borrow a tool like Optimizer to uninstall the file!

    Don't damage the disk a lot if the application is forcefully removed.

    I've done it.

    Dear, then you can only scan it out with 360 and then delete it completely.

    Dear, your situation is not deleted cleanly. There is data left on the computer, but when you install it, the software will determine that you have installed it.

    Dear, use this method to clear. After the computer software is deleted, it cannot be re-** because it is not clear and clean, and the computer software can be cleaned up completely, and you can use the method of deleting the registry. Start by pressing on your keyboard"win+r"Key.

    In the bottom left corner, a "Run" will appear"window, where you can quickly run some programs, type regedit in it, and click OK to open the registry key. After opening the registry manager, press F3, a search window will pop up, enter the name of the software you want to remove, that is, the software you want to install, and find the last remaining registry, such as flash. After the search is completed, you can see the key value of flash, directly right-click to delete all of them, save and exit the registry manager, and then go to the normal installation program.

    Or use third-party software to clean the registry: after opening the third-party software, find the junk cleaning function; Under the junk cleaning function, you can check the "Registry Junk" item, and then click Start Scan, which will automatically detect the remaining registry after uninstallation; Then click Clean Now, and the registry will be cleaned up automatically.

    Deleting things often has a certain impact on the hard drive, but it doesn't hurt a lot.

    When the files on the hard copy disk are deleted, a portion of the hard disk space will be freed up, and when the software is installed, new files will be written to this space. One deletion and one storage objectively increases the number of reads and writes of this part of the hard disk, so it will have a certain impact on the service life.

    However, the function of the hard disk is to read and write, which is unavoidable, so the loss is normal.

    Only low-level formatting will cause more damage to the hard drive.

    There will be temporary files and redundant files stuck on the hard disk to take up a small amount of space, just clean the disk frequently.

    It doesn't have much impact, because it's just a few more reads and writes of the hard disk, and it doesn't have much impact on the life of the hard disk!!

    No, it's good to defragment your disk regularly.

No harm, 360 is a defensive software, but his function is not only this, he also has the ability to clean, antivirus, repair vulnerabilities, is the primary line of defense for computer Internet access, can not be used as a firewall, because the defense is very weak, and the firewall of antivirus software is common, will not produce rejection conflict, so rest assured to use it.
