Windows 10: Deleted the game files but storage settings says it's still installed

I installed Need For Speed Carbon Remastered and Need for Speed Heat from DODI on my pc but ended up deleting them anyways. When doing so, I just deleted the files and not using the uninstaller. Now when I check my storage settings, it says that both apps still take up space but when I try to uninstall them, it can't find the uninstall application because I deleted the game files. I already have Farbar and was going to ask what command to put on the fixlist.txt to remove them.

Cannot Delete Preinstalled Game Files / Cannot Delete Usless Apps

So my desktop is running out of storage. I found the location the app files are saved at. My computer came preinstalled with these games:

• Disney Magic Kingdoms
• March of Empires
• Bubble Witch Saga 3
• Candy Crush Soda Sag

I deleted these games but came across saved files from the deleted games I have never opened while they were still installed on the computer. I gave my profile access to them so I could delete the files for the games I deleted.
I could not delete some files for the pre installed games I never opened and deleted.

Is it possible to delete the files? And why would it even save the files when I deleted the apps that have never been opened? This is what I hate about windows. The useless apps are protected and some files for deleted apps are saved.

Is there a way to delete these apps?:

• Camera (Desktops don't have a camera and I don't use webcams)
• Mail
• Maps
• Messaging (Really if you can just read and not send what's the point on a computer)
• Mixed Reality Portal
• Windows Defender Security Service (Never used, I have Bitdefender)

Of course, weather, one I use sometimes can be deleted while stuff like Maps can't. Thanks Microsoft for making storage impossible to manage!
