Can this be applied to other applications as well?

One of the best Windows tutorials I've seen on YT 🤍 Clear, concise, and helpful. Special thanks for mention backups, thats really an ass-saving option if you accidentally mess up the registry.

i just delete all those and uninstall almost all windows store apps and after that the windows store itself .

I remember trying to uninstall Edge last year and it messed up my whole Windows install. I might try and give it another go. Its unfortunate you can't just uninstall it from the settings or control panel.

@@TheHowToGuy123 yes. I know what you mean . Happened to me also . If you don't want doing it manual ... you could install a program like "windows 10 tweaker" that does it for you. But do notice that some anti virus software see this program as dangerous and will block or delete it. Have a nice day . Greets from The Netherlands .
