How to Uninstall the Camera App
By Timothy Tibbettson 07/21/2023 |
There are many useful apps included with Windows 10, but there are some you might want to remove. In this guide, we look at how to remove the Camera App.
The Camera App is different than other included apps from Microsoft in that you can't use search and uninstall it, nor can you uninstall it from Apps & Features. But, there are other ways.
1: Uninstall With PowerShell
When all else fails, we can remove it from the Command Prompt.
Open PowerShell as admin and type in Get-AppxPackage *windowscamera* | 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.
2: 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.
