    Target removal through .bat file of remnant apps


    I have comprised the following using the information provided on this site, a .bat file that removes all apps from local, other accounts and future accounts.

    Apps.zip

    However, upon launching CCleaner > Tools > Uninstall we have several remnants that are left behind we need to figure out how to completely remove via the .bat file.

    List of Remnant Apps:
    • App Installer
    • Microsoft Pay
    • Store Experience Host
    • Xbox Game Bar
    • Xbox Identity Provider
    • Xbox Live

    Can anyone tell me how we can actually remove these completely via .bat?

    :)

    By default, commands in a .bat file are echoed to the screen as they are executed. The @ sign in a .bat file says 'don't echo the command on this line'. The REM command is a 'remark' (all text that follows is a comment and not an executable command line). That line is therefore not shown on screen when you run the .bat and is just there to tell you what the purpose of the .bat file is.

    Windows 10 does not pass target to Legacy exe apps

    Actually, a screen shot would tell you less than my describing what happens. As I tell in my previous follow up note, debugging my own programs reveals that W10 does pass the target in the command line but quotes it whereas earlier Windows versions pass
    the target path+file as a raw unquoted command line. I have modified my programs to accommodate this.

    I can't say why commercial programs, for which I have no source code, also fail to open the target file but I have discovered additional behavioral information. The failure occurs only if they are run with Administrator rights, in which case, going through
    the bat file corrects whatever W10 does to the command line in this case that is different from when the app is run with lower privilege. I can't investigate this by elevating the bat file's run privilege because Windows doesn't allow that.

    I think a programming forum is more appropriate for the root issue of this problem. But this forum is a reasonable venue for me to offer advice to others who are finding this problem with legacy apps. If the app does open due to "open with" or as default
    but doesn't display the file, try going through a bat file as I suggest in my first post.
