Windows 10: Removing Built-in Apps

I don't have an Xbox & so I do not need the Xbox App or its related packages.
Problem is, I am having a hard time removing the App & its related packages.

These are the steps I have gone through, in both my Local Administrator & Local Standard accounts.
1. I opened PowerShell as Administrator.
2. Typed "Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | Select PackageName" (w/o quotes) to get a list of installed Apps.
3. I typed each command below, pressing Enter after each command:

Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxGameCallableUI* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxIdentityProvider* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxSpeechToTextOverlay* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxApp* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.Xbox.TCUI* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxGameOverlay* | Remove-AppxPackage

I didn't get any messages (successful or error) after each Enter, so I thought all was well.
But after I reboot & check through Powershell, the Xbox App & all related packages are still on the computer.
Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Did you first Uninstall Xbox in it's Start Menu tile? If not, your Powershell commands may have done nothing. Or after restart, the Store simply put them back. I, too, do not need or want XBox, but I uninstalled it first.

 

I use Classic Shell. You can right click any app including Xbox and uninstall it.

 

f14tomcat:
I did uninstall Xbox using it's Start Menu tile 1st. Then I went through PowerShell & typed in each command. But nothing seemed to get removed from the computer.
I've tried the PowerShell commands again a few days ago, but still nothing. Oh well, another blunder Microsoft thinks is best for us users.

 

-PowerShell admin:
Get-Appxpackage *xboxapp*| Remove-Appxpackage

-Ccleaner Pro>Tools>Uninstall>Xbox>All

-Services>xbox>x4>Disabled

Optional
Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security/Outbound Rules/Xbox Game UI/Properties/General/Enabled/Yes/Action/Block the connection/Apply

You'll never see Xbox.

Edit The command line in PowerShell is also optional. Ccleaner does everything.
