  1. How do I uninstall Windows Movies + TV?


    Purchased a laptop with Win 10. When I try to play my movies using VLC Media Player I have to deal with this screen that seems to want to add the file to a list or saves a copy in a hidden location on my HDD. And I still have to deal with this popup window after everything I play.


    How do I uninstall the Movies +TV software?


    Please someone I need an answer. Thanks! (I really hate Windows 10!)

    :)
