1. Hi, Welcome to the video.
2. To begin, click on the search tab on the bottom left hand corner of your device
3. Type in Windows PowerShell. Select run as administrator, OR, right click on the app and select run as Administrator
4. Wait for the app to open and load
5. Type in the following code, or, you can copy and paste it in from the description section of this video
6. Press ENTER and wait
7. for it to load. You should see something similar to whats on your screen. Basically, it will list all the xbox related services on your device
8. Next, pause the video and type in the following code, OR, copy and paste it from the Description section of this video
9. Then press ENTER to start the process
10. You should see the exact same TRUE AND FALSE TEXT, JUST LIKE THE ONE ON YOUR screen. Those message are confirmation that everything ran smoothly and the Packages listed in step one has been removed, or, will be removed after we finish
10. Sometimes you might get a red text like the one on your screen saying access is denied. Don't worry about it. We will fix it in the next step provided you have typed in or copy and pasted the code correctly and that you hit enter regularly.
11. If you think you missed a step or you don't see any of the two CONFIRMATION INSTANCES I SHOWED YOU, that is, the TRUE / FALSE SECTION THAT HAS NO RED TEXT OR THE ONE WITH RED TEXT. Close power shell and start all over again from STEP ONE
12. STEP 3. Type in the following code or, copy it from the description section of this video. Press enter when you finish to initiate the process.
13. Finally. To confirm that it worked, type in this code, or, copy and paste it. Then, Hit enter. If everything worked correctly, no other dialogue would show up. If you see a dialogue Listing any Xbox Package, it means you have done it wrong. SO, start all over again and make sure you follow each Step correctly. Thanks for watching and please like the video.
14. The same steps will work for other Microsoft apps with a GRAYED OUT uninstall option but you will only need step 1 and 2. All you have to do is replace xbox with the name of the Microsoft app you want to remove. For example replace xbox with GetHelp to remove the GetHelp app.
