    How to remove Candy Crush from Windows 10


    Just bought a new Carbon X1 Lenovo - Windows 10. Was surprised to see the crapy application Candy Crush installed and that there is now way to remove it. Please tell me how to do it. Considering returning the computer and by a macbook as I feel tricked by Microsoft.


    Was able to remove the xbox mains application but seems that there is some packages that can't be removed. Why is that so?

    :)

    How do I remove Candy Crush Saga from Windows 10?

    Since Candy Crush Saga is a preinstalled application, you won't find it in the "Programs and Features" control panel to be removed. Instead, you have to use the Windows PowerShell to remove it. Use the following procedure:

    1. Click in the search box in your Taskbar and type powershell; select "Windows Powershell" (not "Windows Powershell ISE" if that shows up).
    2. At the prompt, type Get-AppxPackage -Name king.com.CandyCrushSaga and press Enter (TIP: to copy/paste that command, copy as usual, then just right-click in the PowerShell window to paste).
    3. Look for the "PackageFullName" line in the result that comes up; it should be something similar to king.com.CandyCrushSaga_1.540.1.0_x86__khqwnzmzfus32.
    4. Copy the PackageFullName by left-clicking and dragging to highlight it, then right-click in the PowerShell window to copy the selected text.
    5. Type Remove-AppxPackage (include trailing space) and paste the PackageFullName that you copied in step 4, then press Enter.
    6. A teal-colored text dialog should come up showing the removal process, and then uninstall should be complete.
    7. Repeat step 2 to verify that it uninstalled successfully (the command should now return nothing).
    8. Lastly, confirm that Candy Crush Saga is no longer in your Start Menu.
    9. Enjoy a Candy-Crush-Free computer!
