- criddell 6y agoWas there a Candy Crush ad in the menu that would install it as soon as you click on int?
- ImprobableTruth 6y agoNo, I specifically looked to remove any crapware and was surprised that there wasn't anything. I also just did a search for candy crush and I only got the website.
- criddell 6y agoAre you signing in with a domain account? I think the crapware is only made visible for local accounts and microsoft.com sign ins. https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-to-steer-clear-of-windows-10s-built-in-crapware/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-to-steer-clear-of-windows-...
- jdsully 6y agoI'm on Pro and while Candy Crush was removed, I now have Farm Hero's Saga and something called "Groove Music". Netflix also somehow made its way there even though I've never once tried to watch it on this PC. They are less brazen about it, I had to look in my Applications list.
- criddell 6y agoI think Groove/Zune Music is Microsoft's music player.

- Nextgrid 6y agoI think it depends on the region or maybe even the time period (maybe those promotional deals only run for a certain period of time and eventually get renewed, if you're unlucky enough to reinstall while in the correct region/period you get it).
