How to Uninstall Mail and Calendar Apps in Windows 10
By Timothy Tibbetts |
If you find you don't use the Mail or Calendar apps in Windows 10, here's how to remove them.
The fastest way is to search and uninstall. We will also discuss other methods if that doesn't work for you. It's important to note that unlike other apps, you can uninstall both Mail and Calendar at the same time in Step 2.
1: Uninstall From Search
You can begin typing mail in Cortana, or press the Windows Key + S. When you see Mail you can right-click and click on Uninstall or click on the arrow to see the list of options. Repeat this step by typing in Calendar.
2: Uninstall From Apps & Features
Click on Start> Settings > Apps, and you'll be at the Apps & Features settings. Scroll down, find and click on Mail and Calendar. The Uninstall button should appear.
3: Uninstall With PowerShell
When all else fails, we can remove it from the Command Prompt.
Open PowerShell as admin and type in Get-AppxPackage *windowscommunicationsapps* | Remove-AppxPackage. You might see some text flash briefly, but otherwise, this process only takes seconds to complete.
You can also Remove Windows 10 Apps Using PowerShell individually.
4: Uninstall With a Third-Party App
One excellent choice is O&O AppBuster. O&O AppBuster has the advantage of letting you pick from different apps you want to remove and the ability to restore them should you change your mind later.
