Windows 10: Uninstalling MS Store apps?

How do I uninstall MS Store apps? I tried a lot of bad apps and now everything is in my library, cluttering the UI and making UX terrible. I know I can "hide" them but since I don't intend to ever install them again why can't I remove them permanently?

Windows 10 Version 2004

Uninstalled apps stuck "installing" in Microsoft Store (MSN News)

Hi Will,

A corrupted Microsoft Store cache is one of the possible reasons why some apps are stuck in an "installing phase" when you try to uninstall them. We suggest that you try running the
Windows App troubleshooter to troubleshoot the issue.

If the issue persists, we suggest that you reset the Microsoft Store cache. You can follow the steps below to reset the Microsoft Store cache:

• Press Windows + R keys to open the run
  command box.
• Type WSReset, then try launching Microsoft Store and sign in.

Should you need further assistance, don't hesitate to get back to us.

This is a sign of app metadata getting damaged.

Try resetting the app (from the App and Features part of Settings). If that failed, uninstall and reinstall the app.

5. In the next screen, press the "Reset" button.

   3. Select "Apps and Feature" (which should be on the top)

   5. Click on the "Uninstall" button.
      
2. Open Microsoft Store
   
3. If an update for Microsoft Store is available, install it.
