Hi,

I just clean installed my windows 11, checked the Installed app both of the microsoft bing and start experience app option to uninstall is greyed out, but when I checked through microsoft store both of them can be uninstalled, and I did uninstalled it, is there any downside to this?

Thanks!

Not to the system, but when you use the Microsoft/Windows system to uninstall (as you've done, or the Powershell/CMD command line options) all you're doing is a superficial remove from sight of the app, the major components are still left behind on your device

RevoUninstaller (freeware version) will remove both these completely, and using the Advanced option in Revo (after the initial uninstall), will remove all leftover files, folders and registry entries
