removed, and the date of the installation or removal.
If you encounter problems with the device after
installing a software package, use this list to find out
which software package may be the cause of the
problem. The information in this list may also help you
pinpoint problems that are caused by software
packages that are incompatible with each other.
To remove software, select Options > Remove. If you
remove software, you can only reinstall it by using the
original software package file, or by restoring a full
backup that contains the removed software package.
If you remove a software package, you may no longer
be able to open files created with that software. If
another software package depends on the software
package that you removed, the other software package
may stop working. Refer to the documentation of the
installed software package for details.
