Huge rant incoming:
My biggest issue is still not knowing how the (ugh..) fuck to remove Candy Crush Saga from my god damned “downloaded” apps list. On fucking Professional I should not have to deal with that crap. All the instructions on the internet I have found seem to no longer work, and it’s the tiny things that add up that really annoy me. It even shows up in classic shell ...
- fxfan 8y agoHere- let me do some powershell magic ;) Get-appxpackage \microsoft\ | remove-appxpackage #asterisk around Microsoft Now replace Microsoft with windows. One of these will also remove the store - so careful/congrats
- brianpgordon 8y agoThis project is well-maintained (and extensively forked). It helps you turn all of that crap off. https://github.com/Disassembler0/Win10-Initial-Setup-Script https://github.com/Disassembler0/Win10-Initial-Setup-Script I actually bought a Windows 10 Pro for Workstations license because I thought it would let me cleanly install Windows with just a power user set of functionality and none of that XBox / Candy Crush rubbish. Turns out that used to be true, but no longer. Unless you can find a very particular range of old build images on the dark recesses of the Internet you have to do a standard Windows 10 Pro install and then "upgrade" it to Workstations.
- Operyl 8y agoIts absurd. Even on the City Workstations I sometimes use when volunteering are plagued by candy crush saga!
- naikrovek 8y agoRight-click...
- Operyl 8y agoYou can’t do that with the “advertisement packages”. Thanks for trying though ;).
- naikrovek 8y agoYes, you can. One of the options in that right-click menu is "turn off suggestions" which is how you turn them off.
- Operyl 8y agoIn my case that is entirely broken. It just leaves it there. That’s why I’m frustrated. Regardless, it’s inappropriate to even have it enabled for a Professional installation. It’s so stupid.
- itd00d 8y agoIt is broken as of changes in recent months. Want to know how to remove it and keep it from appearing? Go to the store, install it and then once it's truly installed you can truly remove it. If you don't do this the 'stub' will never disappear. Yes, this is the junk a 100k+ staff company implements now. It's baffling.
