Remove Windows Store Apps Script

Windows 10, 8.1, and 8 come pre-installed with a lot of apps from Microsoft that are hardly ever or never used by some people. They take up significant space on the hard disk and clutter it. If you're certain you wish to get rid of these apps and fail to do this using the typical uninstaller feature for programs, you can turn to Remove Windows Store Apps Script.

This is a script released by Microsoft to help you easily get rid of unwanted or unused Store apps in Windows 10, 8.1, and 8, without having to install additional software. It's basically a piece of code that can be run from PowerShell to quickly eliminate all Store apps.

• Lightweight downloaded package


• No executable files included


• Easy deployment with instructions available


• Requires PowerShell to run


• No redo option provided

Technical Specifications:

• Compatible with Windows 10, 8.1, and 8


• Requires PowerShell


• Uninstalls Store apps quickly and without error

Usage:

You can get started by finding and launching PowerShell. Next, go to the script's folder and enter .\\RemoveWindowsStoreApp.ps1. To avoid file reading errors, you should run PowerShell as administrator. In the following step, all you have to do is enter the ID associated with the Store app you wish to uninstall.

To remove multiple apps at the same time, you can enter all their IDs and separate them by comma. Once the action is confirmed, the task is carried out immediately, so you can check results without having to restart your operating system.

However, it might be a bit tedious to use the tool, not just because it's a script that requires a bit of tinkering with PowerShell but also because you have to learn the ID numbers of Store apps without its help.
