I am NOT a fan of the Windows Store or \u2018Charm\u2019 apps. If I want an application \u2013 I\u2019ll seek out and get it myself. I don\u2019t like being force fed a bunch of useless stuff I don\u2019t want or need. With the advent of Windows 8 through Windows 10 MS has pushed their default\/charm style applications. I use none of them. So I set out to remove them. Here is what I\u2019ve found. Hope it helps.<\/p>\n

If you wish to uninstall individual apps in Windows 10, run the following command in an elevated PowerShell window:<\/p>\n

Get-AppxPackage | Select Name, PackageFullName<\/p>\n

You will be able to see the list of all installed apps and its PackageFullName information.<\/p>\n

\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Note down the PackageFullName<\/i> and replace it in the following command:<\/p>\n

Get-AppxPackage PackageFullName | Remove-AppxPackage<\/p>\n

So the command to remove some of the apps will look as follows:<\/p>\n

Uninstall 3D Builder<\/p>\n

Get-AppxPackage *3dbuilder* | Remove-AppxPackage<\/p>\n

Uninstall Get Office app<\/p>\n

Get-AppxPackage *officehub* | Remove-AppxPackage<\/pre>\n
Uninstall Get Started app<\/p>\n
Get-AppxPackage *getstarted* | Remove-AppxPackage<\/pre>\n
Uninstall Get Skype app<\/p>\n
Get-AppxPackage *skypeapp* | Remove-AppxPackage<\/pre>\n
Etc\u2026<\/p>\n
Run the command to uninstall the particular pre-installed default Windows 10 Store app and then restart your computer.<\/p>\n
If you want to uninstall the particular pre-installed app from all user accounts, use the following command format:<\/b><\/p>\n
Get-AppxPackage -allusers PackageFullName | Remove-AppxPackage<\/b><\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
Seems some people lost the Windows Store and wanted\/needed it to get Window apps.<\/p>\n
Another fully scripted way to remove everything BUT the Windows Store is here:<\/p>\n
Get-AppxPackage<\/p>\n
-AllUsers | where-object {$_.name \u2013notlike "*Microsoft.WindowsStore*"}<\/p>\n
| Remove-AppxPackage<\/p>\n
Get-appxprovisionedpackage \u2013online | where-object {$_.packagename \u2013notlike "*Microsoft.WindowsStore*"}<\/p>\n
| Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage \u2013online<\/p>\n
There are some tools available that will assist users in doing all this via a Graphic Intereface \u2013 Notably theWindowsClub\u2019s 10AppsManager for Win10; it\u2019s a freeware that will allow you to easily uninstall and reinstall the default, built-in, preinstalled Windows Store apps in Windows 10. It can be downloaded here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
