I installed PowerToys a few days ago, but my PC struggles to run it. Today I decided to uninstall it, but I can’t. It doesn’t appear in Programs and Features, and it’s also missing from Revo Uninstaller and the list of Windows apps. I searched online and found many people with the same issue, but no working solution. I would appreciate any help.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 15 years?

Microsoft probably doesn't want you to remove it, that's why... ;-)
