bloatware

bloatware
Noun

This term carries a strong negative connotation, reflecting user frustration with software that feels forced upon them. It describes a perceived lack of efficiency and a waste of storage space, often implying that the manufacturer is prioritizing corporate partnerships or marketing over the user experience.

As an uncountable noun, bloatware is treated as a mass noun. You cannot refer to a single piece of bloatware as "a bloatware"; instead, use partitive constructions such as "a piece of bloatware" or "an instance of bloatware" to specify individual programs.
