New Lenovo laptop - queries

Dear All
I'm the happy owner of a rather lovely new Lenovo laptop!
Two questions:
1) Which Lenovo bloatware can I remove? I've downloaded the PC decrapifier but am not sure which boxes to tick.
2) I thought I had downloaded the full free AVG but instead I have the trial version. Does anyone have a link to the full free one?
Many thanks
Maureen
