Remove Default Apps
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *3dbuilder* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *windowsalarms* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *windowscommunicationsapps* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *windowscamera* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *officehub* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *skypeapp* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *getstarted* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *zunemusic* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *solitairecollection* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *bingfinance* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *zunevideo* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *bingnews* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *onenote* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *people* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *windowsphone* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *photos* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *windowsstore* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *bingsports* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *soundrecorder* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *bingweather* | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *xboxapp* | Remove-AppxPackage
This will remove most apps other than Edge, Calculator and Store (use at your own risk):
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | where-object {$_.name –notlike “*store*” -And $_.name –notlike “*calculator*”} | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxProvisionedPackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –notlike “*store*” -And $_.packagename –notlike “*calculator*”} | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online
Reinstall Default Apps
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
