Windows 10: Remove-AppXPackage Mail for Windows 10 -AllUsers no longer works

Get-AppXpackage *windowscomm* Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers


This used to work, it now doesn't. Please our dear overlord Microsoft, please impose the divine light that I may customise the enterprise environment I manage and not have my users trying to log into Mail for Windows 10 on our meeting room computers.


I know you know better than me, and I'm eternally grateful that you still allow me to uninstall Candy Crush Saga and MineCraft from our business computers, I'd be ever so grateful and privileged if you would once again allow me to do so with Mail.


Humbly your slave of a billion clicks

PS, I'm really looking forward to being restricted to the Windows 10 settings menu as opposed to Control panel. You're so wise in your choices, us admins are in awe of your foresight and empathy for us who manage your software without SCCM and a team of powershell script writers.

Get-appxpackage -allusers does not seem to be working.

Let's say I do:
Get-appxpackage *onenote*
and
Get-appxpackage -allusers *onenote*

And I find there are entries for this product.

So, I run:
Get-appxpackage -allusers *onenote* | Remove-AppxPackage

And I find that the localuser does not have the package, but allusers does.

Something wrong with the way I'm doing it?

I _am_ using a powershell with elevated privileges.

 

PwrShell: Remove-AppxPackage & Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -AllUsers

Hello,
I would like to ask a couple of questions regarding PowerShell commands for App management (OS build 19041.450)

First: is there any difference between
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxApp* | Remove-AppxPackage
and
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *Microsoft.XboxApp* | Remove-AppxPackage
if there is only one user on the computer?

Second: what is the difference between
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackageName MyAppxPkg
and
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -AllUsers -Online -PackageName MyAppxPkg

Thanks for any help,
Mark

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

@W1zzard looks like the hashing/version is different on some systems
this syntax works better
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *3d* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *bing* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *solit* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *people* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *zune* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *photos* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *phone* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *communi* | Remove-AppxPackage"
someone already compiled all the tweaks listed into a handy choice driven .cmd file
you can get that from here
