Here’s how to remove those useless built-in apps from Windows 10

0

My experience with Windows 10 has been great so far, but I’m not alone in saying that I’d really like to remove some of those built-in apps that I’m never going to use, such as the Groove and Xbox apps. Fortunately, this is actually pretty easy to achieve using PowerShell and entering in the code Thomas Vanhoutte has posted on his blog.

Windows 10 comes with several apps installed by default, some which you might never use, like the Xbox app or Phone Companion. Here’s how to remove those apps. You’ll need to run PowerShell as an administrator, but after that all you have to do is copy and paste the code Thomas Vanhoutte has posted on his blog. The apps you can remove with PowerShell are: 3D; Camera; Mail and Calendar; Money, Sports, News, and Weather; Groove Music and Film & TV; People; Phone Companion; Photos; Solitaire Collection; Voice Recorder; and Xbox. According to some reports on the interwebs, removing the Xbox app could improve gameplay on Windows 10. Annoyed by other minor things in Windows 10? You can tweak them away too.
