Can they fully be uninstalled and removed from my account

I have no main problems with them being there, as long as they can be fully got rid of

I still have Candy Crush showing on my account from this last time, which i cannot remove from my account and get recommendations based on it

Like seeing Promoted Apps in the Start Menu? You'll love the Windows 10 Anniversary Update [Update]

 

not seeing apps

I have been running windows 10 for almost a month and loving and all of a sudden, the "start button" isn't the same. It looks like it did prior to my upgrade to windows 10 (I previously ran windows 7). Also, because of this, I'm not able to access my
apps. I've gone as far as reinstalling windows 10 hoping that would fix the problem.

 

Have you tried this Paul ?

(To remove Candy Crush Saga app from current account only)
*Arrow Get-AppxPackage *CandyCrushSaga* | Remove-AppxPackage

 

Thanks, I have done that

Is there any way to get rid of it from my MS account?
If i look in the Store it says i own it and gives me recommendations because of this, I dont want to own it *Smile, i want it gone

 

Ok give this one a shot Paul
Get-appxpackage -allusers *CandyCrushSodaSaga* | Remove-AppxPackage
OR this one ...depending on the name...
Get-appxpackage -allusers *CandyCrushSaga* | Remove-AppxPackage

 

That just removes it from the PC?

I have never actually installed it on the PC, but it is in my MS account as an app that i own (with various others)

When i go into the Store and look at My Library, this is an app in there, this is where i want it gone from

Dont think its possible to do, unless this feature has been added into one of the insider builds

 

I really wish they would change that policy of use once and its forever yours. My Store "My Library" is littered with Apps I never ever used. Mostly OEM installed Apps that were pre installed on my laptop. Once I logged in with my Microsoft ID they were all instantly added to my Store My Library. *Devil Even though I never ever used them and immediately uninstalled them. *Mad

 

They would have to redo the Store App, and maybe even how the Store itself works. I can see locking in paid for App's. I don't see why free and trial aps are locked in though? All you can do is complain via the feedback App.

 

*Ditto*Ditto*Ditto

 

will need to go back to the feedback app and see if i can find some of these to upvote, or add if i cant find many

when i first got Win 8 i tried loads of apps, later removed because they where rubbish, then did the same with 10 when it came out

now, like you i have a store full of apps i will never use, and OEM apps that are not compatible with 10, lol

 

Maybe .....down the road, we will have a way to remove this junk ....just might take some time. *Sad

 

I have a bunch listed as "Will not work on this device". That is one thing that really pisses me off. Try an App but don't like it, good luck ever getting ride of it. *Mad My "My Library" is basically useless now. Its a pain just finding the apps I do use.

 

All my Win Phone ones are in that area (plus a few others)

almost a 50/50 split of ones that do work and ones that dont work on this device *Sad
