You only need to fix quotation marks in original string, the variant you proposed doesn't say what English string is saying.
I translated so because, I hope, "floppy disc" term is obsolete nowadays (nobody has it).
This is not up to translator to alter a meaning of original text just cause some words in it are not used frequently enough these days than they used to.
Well, in this case I`ll improve it to "... с дискеты, компакт- ...".
What does it mean: "можно автоматически удалить"? It doesn`t sound correct becouse auto-removing (in the text) and user-aided one (in mean of a phrase "можно удалить") are mutual exclusive.
It means that there's an uninstaller of some sort that could be used to uninstall a program. Uninstall doesn't mean removing files, it could be a lot more. So user can manually undo what's done by installer (and he's not supposed to do that) or automatically undo these changes going through uninstallation procedure.
In this case we need to change this phrase, becouse it messed everybody I asked. What is in Windows there (for reference)?

That's questionable. If you really want to change that it will need to depend on context I guess.
I think, "Имя" is used for, em, "animate objects"; against "Название" is used for "inanimate objects".
That's not true. It's more general than that, it's more like "identifier" actually. And nobody says "название файла", that sounds strange at least.
Oh, I forgot about it. But there is an "Имя" column in Windows Explorer (in Windows 7 at least), so I don`t know what is correct.
