This tutorial will show you how to uninstall apps for your account, all users, or new users in Windows 11.

If you no longer want or use an app, then you could uninstall the app to remove it and free up space on the drive.

Desktop apps are traditional programs installed by a user. These will not be an app from the Microsoft Store.

Windows apps are apps installed by a user from the Microsoft Store. Each Microsoft account owns their own apps.

Provisioned apps are apps included with Windows 11, and automatically installed when a new user signs in to Windows the first time. They are per-user apps, and typically installed in the "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" folder. These are also available in Microsoft Store for a user to reinstall if needed.

Android apps are apps users can install from the Microsoft Store via Android Appstore. This feature uses the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA), and allows users to interact with Android apps, just like others apps installed from the Microsoft Store. Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) is being deprecated beginning March 5, 2025.

Starting with Windows 11 build 26220.7271 (Dev and Beta 25H2), Microsoft has added support for uninstalling Store-managed apps from the Microsoft Store’s library page. Simply find an installed app in your library, click the three-dot menu, and click uninstall.

Starting with Windows 11 build 2610.8313 (RP 24H2) and build 26200.8313 (RP 25H2), Microsoft adds support for a dynamic app removal list to the “Remove Default Microsoft Store packages” policy for Windows Enterprise and Education. Administrators can remove additional MSIX/APPX-packaged apps by specifying their app package family names using Group Policy. The dynamic list is not currently available in Intune Settings Catalog. Validation must be performed using Group Policy or custom OMA-URI. For more information, see Policy-based in-box app removal.

I poked around where I could. Everything works for me. Maybe someone smarter can tell me where I have it. But I repeat, everything works for me.

Pause

This has to be created in a .bat file. It removes everything. I am going to reinstall Windows 11 a little later and verify everything here along with other tweaks.

I am going to create a list of apps that are still present in the Start Menu after this is ran that I would like removed in another thread to get assistance to make this a little more complete.

I have a question regarding removal of apps as it relates to creating a sysprep image. I know that normally, when syspreping a reference system, one cannot simply uninstall Microsoft Store apps. Doing so causes sysprep to fail. But is it possible to remove Store apps prior to sysprep using ANY of these methods?

Sure you can.

Remove-AppxPackage, then Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage like MS instructs you:
Sysprep fails after you remove or update Microsoft Store apps that include built-in Windows images

Or just avoid sysprep altogether and de-provision apps on a DISM-mounted image. UUP dump script's allows you to avoid (or restrict) Store apps by selectively not provisioning them into the just assembled image, so they don't even show up.
