hello everyone welcome to another windows 10 tutorial from windows lovers.com it's me your
host Prajwal and in today's tutorial i'll show you how to uninstall apps on windows 10. i also
show you how to uninstall stubborn apps that won't uninstall from windows 10 so let's get started
before we get into toll please make sure you give this video a thumbs up and subscribe for more that
helps our channel a lot and make sure you leave any comment if you have any issues so let's get
into jewel now uninstalling an app is quite straightforward there are three main ways you
can uninstall apps from your windows 10 machine the first is by using the add or remove programs
second is using windows 10's inbuilt program manager in the system settings
and third is uninstalling an app from its own properties
finally for those who cannot uninstall a particular app using these methods you can use
an uninstaller that will forcefully uninstall applications that are failing to uninstall
for the purpose of this video i'll be showing you how to use revo uninstaller that will uninstall
all the apps that are not being uninstalled by the traditional method first how to uninstall
apps using the add or remove programs there's two ways you can open add a remote program the
first way is to open your start menu open control panel search for control panel
and then you will see a section called programs and there will be a link to uninstall program
if you are set to view by icons you will find it under programs and features so open that and this
gives you the list of all the applications that are installed on your computer all right so if you
want to uninstall any applications what you got to do is you right click on it or you just click
on it and on the top it will give you an install option so just click on uninstall um it will ask
you to allow click on yes and this basically opens the uninstaller for that application all right
second way of getting here is by using your run so if you hit windows and r together on your keyboard
this opens up run so what you will type is you'll type in app wiz dot cpl so it's a double p
w i z dot c p l so it's a shortcut to open your ad or remove programs all right
so that's the first way on how to uninstall apps second way is to open start again search for
ad or remote programs it shows you this gear icon and it says system settings so just click on that
and it opens all the apps and features that install on your computer all right so now
the only thing is sometimes the softwares that are listed on your alarm programs inside control panel
might not be listed here so if you're looking for something particular you might not find it
under app and features so majority of the apps are here so i've had instances where
i couldn't find an application that i want to uninstall under here so in that case
you might have to go into control panel and open the adorama programs and you will find
that application here all right so if you want to uninstall any application
from this list what you would do is click on it and click on uninstall so it's not
about because this is a windows feature so i'm just gonna click on it and click on uninstall
and it says this app and it's related info will be uninstalled so that's fine click on uninstall
and as you can see it says uninstalling and it says uninstall so now it's gone the third way is
to uninstall an application from its property so what i mean by that is if you see any icon so
for example i want to uninstall an application from here so what i will do is click on start
i'll find the application right click on it and you'll give an option to uninstall and
if you just click on it so what this does it opens the add or remove programs again
so if it's a application or an app that you downloaded from the windows app store
it gives you a different option so for example i've downloaded this game from the app store so
if i right click and click on uninstall it says this app and its relay info will be uninstalled
but if it's a third-party software that i installed using installer if i right click
on that and click on install it takes me to add or remove programs so if you cannot find anything
there on your adorama programs you can just directly go to the app right click on it uninstall
and it will take you where you can find that application so now what to do if some of the
applications are not being uninstalled from ad or remote programs all right so there might be some
adwares there might be some malware that might be installed that will not be uninstalled or
that cannot be uninstalled from the traditional uninstallers so for that what i suggest is you
download an application called revo uninstaller so this is a free app they also have a premium
version but you can just download the free version which will do the job for you so i'll put a link
in the description where you can go and download the rivon installer i've already downloaded it
and installed it so after you've downloaded installed it you can just open revo uninstaller
click on yes so now it loads all the applications and the features that might be installed on
your computer so if you want to uninstall a particular application you can just click on it
and click on uninstall and it will give you a different kind of uninstaller
and it also gives you an option to make a system restore point which is actually very helpful
just in case if something goes wrong after you uninstall something
you always have a system restore point where you can roll back your computer to
another good feature that i really like is called hunter mode so when you click on hunter mode
so it gives you sort of this icon on the top right corner so what you can do now is if you drag this
and drag it over any application that you want to uninstall it will give you different options
so you give it option to uninstall you can kill the process kill the dilly
kill and delete the process open the containing folder you can search google for whatever this um
exe might be so for example you might have some application that you don't
know what that exactly does so in that case what you can do is drag that icon
over that and just do a google search for skype for business or microsoft corporation it gives you
different information depending on what application that is so that's one of the
really good features of revo uninstaller so that's how you uninstall apps from windows 10 i hope this
was helpful please make sure you give this video a thumbs up and subscribe for more thank you
