Is there any way to remove the above-listed Windows apps from the
start menu?
The package name for Get Help
is Microsoft.GetHelp_10.1706.1981.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe
You can remove it, permanently from your system, with the following command in an elevated command prompt.
DISM /Online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.GetHelp_10.1706.1981.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe
As for the Connect application, I am going under an educated assumption, it's package is Windows.MiracastView_6.3.0.0_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy
.
You can permanently remove that package by using the following command in an elevated PowerShell prompt.
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Windows.MiracastView_6.3.0.0_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy | Remove-AppxPackage
I used the following commands to determine which package belonged to which application.
Get-AppxPackage | Select Name, PackageFullName
Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Select DisplayName | Sort DisplayName
No, that cause problems. Is there a way to remove the other start menu items, bar Cortana? Thank you – Alex – 2018-01-18T00:15:08.700
Yes, I am fine with removing both Connect, and Support. Thank you! – Alex – 2018-01-18T00:31:40.647
