Uninstall Apps in Windows 10  


Hi Shawn,

(1) If one uninstalls apps using this tutorial, can they be restored/re-installed at a later date if the user wishes it? Is this the correct tutorial to use? {How to Reinstall and Re-register All Built-in Windows Apps in Windows 8 and 10}

(2) Secondly, it is correct to assume if an App in the list under apps and features shows up with the options for move and uninstall are greyed out, that these apps will not be removed using the procedure in OPTION TWO of this tutorial?

(3) If one uninstalls xbox, then all xbox related apps such as the solitaire collection stop working?
best
