  1. I need help uninstalling an app.


    About 2 days, whatever I searched in google became yahoo and I don't want yahoo since it's not as efficient as google, I did everything, I removed yahoo from my search engines and I made google my default browser so it should be google but its not. So I started looking through my apps and I found three suspicious apps:

    1: Bonjour, never heard or seen this app before and when I wanted to delete it, a user account control panel appeared, and apparently the file origin is Apple although I have a HP laptop so I had no idea what that was doing in my computer.
    2: Search Powered by Yahoo!, I think this app may be a virus since whenever I try to delete it, it doesn't get deleted and I think this is the app responsible for the main problem above.
    3: uninst.exe, apparently this is the app necessary for uninstalling apps but when ever it appears on the user account control panel it says it has an unknown origin.
    So my final questions are, how do fix my google chrome browser, and are any of those apps dangerous and if so how do I remove them?

    Hopefully somebody answers these questions soon.

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Help me uninstall this.

    Correct gb = Great Britain

    You would be using step 4 in Option Two below for this.

    You would need the PackageFullName to the right of that.

    How to disable/uninstall the Photo app in Windows 10?

    Hi,

    I suggest you to follow the steps below to uninstall the Photo app and check if it helps.

    We cannot disable Photos app on windows 10. However, we can uninstall the app and when you require the app you can download it through Windows Store.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below to uninstall the Photo app.


    • Type Power Shell in the Search bar,
      right-click on Windows PowerShell and click on
      Run as administrator
      .

    • Type the following commands, press Enter
      key after each command, in the given order.
    1. Get-AppxPackage

    (This will view all the apps installed in your account.)

    2. Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers

    (This will view all Windows apps installed in the computer.)

    3. Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.Photos | Remove-AppxPackage

    (This will remove/uninstall the Photo app.)

    • Restart the system and check.

    Hope the information helps. Kindly write back to us for further assistance on Windows. We will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you.
