Safe Mode is a Windows mode that uses only the most basic drivers and programs that are required to start Windows, thus to prevent third-party programs from automatically loading or opening. It can be used to diagnose hardware driver problems and computer infections.

Step 3: Delete Socialize Leftovers

Performing the steps above dose not mean that you will achieve a 100% removal of Socialize. Usually, uninstalling Socialize from either Windows Add/Remove Programs or by its default uninstaller only remove the main executable files of Socialize, while its personal settings, cache folder, temporary files and specially the leftovers in the Windows Registry still linger on your computer. Consequently they will stuff your disk space and even degrade your PC performance. It is highly suggested to remove these residuals if you decide not to use Socialize anymore.

Notice: As Windows registry is a database that stores crucial configuration settings and options, you must be extremely careful when editing registry. Manually deleting registry keys or values here is not only time-consuming but also risk-taking. Unless you are proficient in computer operating, we do not suggest you to modify the registry on your own. And try to backup the entries you gonna delete if you are not 100% sure to do it right. For most common computer users, a professional uninstaller can really spare you from taking risk in deleting ambiguous program leftovers.

2.Files/Folders
