    Is uninstalling and reinstalling apps multiple times on Laptop bad? Will that make the app...


    I was having some trouble with my computer, so I uninstalled and reinstalled "StreamLabs" to see if that would fix the issue because I recently put some new settings to it and forgot what the original settings were. I uninstalled and reinstalled "StreamLabs" 2 times, only to realize that it was not the problem. It is bad to StreamLabs or my computer?

    Uninstalled app can't be reinstalled.

    I was having trouble with an app. The developer suggested I uninstall the app, then reboot, the reinstall it. I uninstalled the app. I rebooted. I went to the store to reinstall it and the store says it is already installed and provides a "Launch" button.
    But the app is NOT installed. It doesn't show up in the list of apps. And clicking the "Launch" button does nothing.

    So now I am stuck with a paid for app that I can't get reinstalled.

    How do I get around this?

    Is uninstalling and reinstalling apps multiple times on Laptop bad? Will that make the app or the computer run slower?
