So, I recently bought a pc on OLX (an app that you can sell and buy stuff) the man that sold to me appears to be a really nice person and I got a really good price for my hardware. It’s about 2 months since I bought it and it came reseted with windows installed. I notice that there were some apps on it and when I questioned the man he said it was just apps to check the performance of the computer, but sometimes when I alt-tab I see two random softwares open that I don’t recognize: Home Cloud and another that the name is really weird, Form1 Should I be worried or am I just paranoid? EXTRA: every time I try to click on it nothing happens and also I can’t find them on the list to uninstall

    home cloud seems to be photos and video storage

    What is Form1 on my PC?

    Form1 is the default name of the main window for a windows desktop program. Most of the time you would rename it, but hey… Anyway, you should be able to identify the file with Process Explorer, running as admin. it has a cross-hair icon you can click and drag onto a window to jump to its processes.21 Jul 2020

    Learn to use search engines first, even in task manager there is the option to find out about a program running that you do not recognise.

    no need to format the pc, you would probably not know how to find the licence unless it was on a sticker on the pc
