Windows 10: How to delete an uninstalled application or games from the microsoft store library?

How to delete an uninstalled application or game from the Microsoft Store library?The store library options offer limited options such as:sharingreview writing version notesshows the download buttonCan someone please guide me on how I can manage my computer's library and remove unwanted things I decide to delete?This no-delete button is so frustrating, Microsoft does not have a feature to give users the choice to manage applications on their own rather than forcing them to keep the applications in the library forcibly.

UNINSTALL GAMES FROM MICROSOFT

Hi Calaird,

This is Wil, one of the independent advisor, an expert with Windows 10 and a fellow Windows 10 user like you. I understand your concern about Uninstalling games.

Reference:

If you installed your game from the Microsoft Store, follow these steps:

1. Press the Windows button on your device or keyboard, or select the Windows icon in the lower-left corner of the main screen.

2. Select All Apps, and then find your game in the list.

3. Right-click the game tile, and then select Uninstall.

4. Follow the steps to uninstall the game.

5. To reinstall your game, open the Store app, and then select the profile button.

6. Select My Library.

7. Locate your game in the list of available downloads, and then select the download icon to the right.

If you installed your game from a location other than the Microsoft Store, such as a DVD or external storage device, follow these steps:

1. Press the Windows button on your device or keyboard, or select the Windows icon in the lower-left corner of the main screen.

2. Select Settings, and then in the search bar, type “Programs and features.”

3. Select Programs and Features from the search results.

4. Highlight your game in the list of available programs and apps.

5. If your game supports repair, Repair will appear as an option above the list of games. Select this option to access the in-game repair process. Alternatively, some games support repair via the Uninstall/Change options. If you don't see "Repair," select Uninstall
or Change from the available options and check to see if the game supports repair.

I hope my suggestions help you. If you need further assistance please do reply back and I will respond as quickly as possible. Have a nice day.

Thanks,

Wilfred P.

Application Disappeared from Microsoft Store Library

I started having issues with the OverDrive app recently. I contacted their technical support team and they gave me a few things to try. I confirmed the app was stored in my Microsoft Store Library at the beginning of the process. One of the steps is to uninstall the app and then re-install using the library copy. I successfully did this once, but then needed to do the uninstall/install a second time. This time when I went back to the Microsoft Store library, the OverDrive app was gone. What would cause this? Can it be recovered as the OverDrive app is no longer directly available in the Microsoft Store?
