Windows 10: Movies and TV

I was reading an article and saw that Windows 10 has built-in Movie and TV APP. I have looked around but I don't see any such thing..

Presently I have HDMI cord from my PC to my TV and can watch movies from my PC to my TV using either VLC or K-lite. The issue as I see it is that my monitor is square and my TV is rectangle. That makes the movie show up square on my TV. Yes I know I can stretch (change the aspect ratio) on either of the movie players and over come this to a minor degree. Also on the TV I can see the player control (not crazy about this).

This may help understanding better. On my old Windows 7 PC I use Plex and is a great program and ONE day I put it on the Windows 10. Until or if Windows 7 dies, I will continue to use Plex.

My question is this: Will this built-in APP help over come the aspect ration issue. If so where do I find it on my PC?.

It would also help is there is tutorial around to get me through this setup.
