Windows 10: Help me remove this windows app files

Hello.

For over a half a year I had 47 GB blocked on my SSD due to the game Sea of Thieves changing their file structure and the update downloaded the complete new game files, but failed to remove the old game files.


I want to completely remove PackageFullName "Microsoft.SeaofThieves_2.80.1038.2_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" but problem is any troubleshooting methods to remove windows store apps dont find this package. It only finds the new package version which I want to keep (Microsoft.SeaofThieves_2.85.3741.2_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe). So please dont just reply with methods found on google search.

But the files are visible on the SSD but locked by the system.





Thanks for any help.

:)

...

you get the idea. ( too lazy to put it in a for loop and test it.

or just open regedit and remove all the fileX from that key.
