Windows 10: Windows apps folder infected with lots of "candy crush and bubble witch saga" and etc...

Basically the subject's name. It's free real estate for different versions of the games i didn't even install (and some for example minecraft i did). Any way to dispose of these?

Remove pre-installed apps (Candy Crush, Bubble Witch Saga, March of Empires) from Windows 10

I've been trying to remove Windows 10 Bloatware including Candy Crush Saga, Bubble Witch Saga, and Minecraft.

First, I tried simply uninstalling them, but the folders for these apps are not being removed and remain in C:\Program Files\WindowsApps.

The most common solution I've seen researching this issue is to remove the app package through Powershell, but doing this still does not remove the folders.

Is it safe to simply delete the folders corresponding to each app?

Edit

Don't mess with the permissions in the WindowsApps folder...can not launch Windows Store even after two resets (one keeping files and one removing them).

Edit 2

Ended up reinstalling a windows from a fresh iso. Only solution I have found.

 

WIN 10 Candy Crush Saga

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

I appreciate if you could answer a few questions:

1. Do you experience this issue with only Candy Crush Saga or other Microsoft apps?

2. Did the Candy Crush Saga games work initially when you loaded on your PC?

If this issue is only with Candy Crush Saga, i suggest you to uninstall the game and re-install it and check if it works fine.

Thank You.

 

Candy Crush Saga

Candy Crush Saga, just quit. When I click on the APP nothing happens. Soda and Jelly work just fine. I'm on level 216 on Candy Crush Saga, If I try to re-install will I lose my progress? I have Windows 10.
