I gather from your post you are very new to linux in general.
Try not to expect the same handling as you did in windows.
Do not (just)uninstall what doesn't seem to work for you, you might need it 
again later.
Take your time to look around at what you've got installed...it's more than 
you think or can see at a first glance.

Yes, I would certainly advise to _only_ install via the software 
manager....that will save some disappointments, depencies_wise.
