Have you ever tried to permanently uninstall microsoft teams or the xbox app or onedrive?
Guess not :)
Back when I still had windows I had a powershell script just for deleting the apps it kept reinstalling after each update.
- naikrovek 7y agoOld info. Teams doesn't ever come back after uninstallation, and you have to install it yourself to have it in the first place. It isn't bundled. For about two years now, with any OS upgrade or patch, bundled apps are not installed if you've uninstalled them prior to that OS upgrade or patch. It's important to keep your complaints up to date with new information, or at least admit that your information is old.
- tyfon 7y agoI guess you missed the "Back when I still had windows" text in my comment, but I could quantify this. I removed windows a year ago from my last machine and it still had this behaviour. If they now allow uninstalling all bundled apps easily without them coming back after updates then props to them. It's not what I hear from colleagues that still have windows though.
- erichurkman 7y agoVery literally just went through fixing Teams on a family member's laptop. They kept uninstalling it, and upon next boot, their computer was unresponsive for 10+ minutes as Teams reinstalled itself. After some digging, it turns out there's a separate installer you have to uninstall. Since when do you have to uninstall installers? This was on a fully up to date, modern Windows laptop.
