    Running Windows 10 Version 20H2
    I have never used or installed the redlined apps here but they appear in WindowsApps folder.
    They are not present on my computer so I cannot "Uninstall" them.

    How can I get rid of these folders?
    1) Professionalsoft pdf professional - Not installed on my PC and does not even come up when I search Windows App store.
    2) Videopix movie maker (2 versions) - Not installed on my PC

    :)

    Split Steam app folder between 2 HDD?

    As the title suggests I want to find out if there's a way I can split my steam app folder on to 2 drives, specifically an SSD that I will be putting my OS and most used games and apps and a regular HDD for everything else?

    Windows Mail and 3rd party messages

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    Please assist me with the following information related to this issue:

    • May I know what exactly do you mean when you say "download messages from 3rd party into Windows Mail"?
    • Are you referring to Mail app on Windows 10? If so, are you able to receive any send email via Mail app?

    If you are facing issues with Mail app, I suggest
    run the in-built Windows Store app troubleshooter and check. Follow the steps:


    • Press Windows Key + X..

    • Click on Control Panel.

    • Select Troubleshooting.

    • On the left pane, click on View All.

    • Click on Windows Store apps to run the troubleshooter.
    Let us know if the issue is resolved or if you require further assistance.

    Installing 3rd party Gaming Apps on Windows

    I am a Windows user and also a gaming explorer. I have come across gaming supportive apps which allows to play
    android games on windows platform. As we only use our android mobile to play games. I also like to experience the gaming in a much wider screen such as my Desktop PC screen.

    • Are these 3rd party apps are suitable for use to install on windows platform?
    • How are we going to assure the security of these apps?

    Open for Discussion.
