"Uninstall" refers to the process of removing software or applications from a computer or device. This action frees up storage space and can help improve system performance. Users typically initiate an uninstall through the device's settings or control panel, where they can select the program they wish to remove. When a program is uninstalled, its files and data are deleted from the system. However, some residual files may remain, which can be cleaned up using additional tools. Uninstalling is a common practice for managing software, ensuring that only necessary applications are kept on the device.
