    How Do I Disown an App in my Microsoft Store Library?

    Hi,

    May we know what device are you using to access Microsoft Store? If your using a Windows phone, you can hide an app from your app list by doing the following steps:

    • Go to Microsoft Store.
    • Tap Menu (3 lines icon) on the top-left side, and then tap
      My Library
      .
    • Tap Show all.
    • Hide the app by tapping the ellipsis (3 dots icon) associated with it , and then tap
      Hide.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

  3. 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?

    Remove app from Store library

    This answer did NOT answer the question. You answered about Uninstalling an app. The question relates to REMOVING the listing of the app from the Microsoft Store Library listing altogether.

    I understand the rationale for having the app still listed in the Store's Library. It's in the event someone decides to reinstall it at some later date, so they won't have to endure the "chore" of searching for it again.

    But what happens if an app is installed and the user hates it, uninstalls it and then decides to NEVER reinstall it ever again? It is to this scenario that the original question refers. So, in this specific scenario is there a way to remove the app (not merely HIDE it from view) from the Microsoft's Store Library listing of apps on a given PC? Yes or No? If no, so be it.
