I TRIED COMMANDS FROM TUTORIALS HERE, nothing worked. And you can't start windows apps as admin. Uninstall button is greyed out! I ran couple commands successfully to delete appx packages from powershell 7.3.1, but apps weren't deleted!

Thanks for help!

Is it a Local Account with Administrative Rights or a Standard account? All 3 of my Win11 machines are Local as Admin.

Hi,
If you activated the default system admin account think that is normal

If you just add an admin local user account like all other version you shouldn't have any issues.

You do still need to run cmd as admin.

Right, I have headaches, I can just add standard account as admin temporarily right? To do that...

Hi,
Standard user and admin user accounts are two different beasts
You do need to create a new admin account though and not use the built in system admin account as this tutorial describes
You can add a password to this system admin account though and hide it.again.

I Am glad, because create whole new account is vehement! Luckily now (after changing acc to admin) this command has worked:
Code:
Get-AppxPackage | Remove-AppxPackage

Any security tips for new user? I have down basics... What is new on Windows 11? Or good article. I would appreciate it 🙂

How to get rid of old power shell BTW?

EDIT: already bugging out, win+1 to cycle browser tabs don't work, or there is white rectangle, while they removed ungroup option :mad:

Hi,
Don't know what tabs you're talking about so you might ask a new question in maybe web browser section ?
You can get lots of good suggestions here on 11 tweaks
