Windows 10: When viewing my installed apps through the settings, I see applications I have already deleted.

When viewing my installed apps through the settings, I see applications I have already deleted. I try to delete them again through the installed apps panel but since they have have been deleted already I get "Windows cannot find <file path>. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." All of the applications outlined in the screenshot attached have been removed from the computer. So how can I also make it so they do not show up in the apps browser?

Deleting apps

Hello Kelly,

We would like to know more information about your issue so that we will know why you are unable to delete applications on your computer:

• What changes/updates have you made prior to the issue?
• Is there an error message when you try to uninstall an application?

In the meantime, I would suggest that you try the steps in this article on
how to uninstall apps and programs in Windows 10.

We will wait for your response.

Application not showing in default app

Do this for each file extension you want to set up to run with your chosen application: 1 Right click on a file with the file extension you want to set up, 2 Open with, 3 If the one you want is not in the list then Choose another app, 4 Set the Always use this ... checkbox, 5 If the one you want is not in the list then More apps, 6 If the one you want is not in the list then Look for another app on this PC, 7 Browse to and select the chosen application's .exe file, click on Open, 8 It will then open the file in the chosen app. 9 All other files with the same file extension should also run in your chosen app if you now simply double-click on them. Most of this is also explained with pretty pictures in Option 2 of Choose Default Apps - TenForumsTutorials but it leaves out my steps 6, 7. Instead, the tutorial takes a bit of a shortcut that I generally don't take. If you had only been interested in getting your chosen apps in the Open with list instead of working through to set them as the default app for those file extensions then I would have suggested a different tutorial: Remove, Add Programs from Open with Context Menu - TenForumsTutorials and I would have advised you to take note of post #26 in that tutorial thread Remove, Add Programs from Open with Context Menu [hexaae UWPApps note #26] - TenForumsTutorials All the best, Denis
