Hi Idharam,
Thank you for posting your question in Microsoft Community.
I understand that you want to remove uninstalled apps history in the "Your Apps" option from "Windows store". Correct me if I am wrong.
It is by design and it is not possible to remove the app history. It is used for your reference, the apps that you have uninstalled, so that you can install them in the future, if you require it.
I hope the above information helps you.

No it does not help us. We want to remove our app history. We need the option.

That was not helpful at all. Horrible user friendliness. I'm so annoyed.
As a new Windows Phone user this seems easy to fix based on my prior experience.
Having used both and Android and iPhone in the past, these platforms allow this to easily be done. Both of these platforms initially did not allow this feature, but later added it in.
It is a pain to scroll through a long list of applications that I most likely do not even want to see, let alone want to install again.
Please count this reply as a vote to allow the removed of apps from the My Apps list on Windows Phone and Windows 10. Please pass this on to development, MS User Voice, etc. This thread is full of users pleading for this feature.
Perhaps Windows Phone 10 will address this issue??
Thanks for your consideration to this matter.

On the contrary, if this is by design, it's malicious, because it causes error code 80073cf6, if you were to try to install a previously uninstalled app. And I only uninstalled it because it wasn't opening properly, and I intended to reinstall it, and thanks to your "by design," that's not possible.
What you're saying is tantamount to a man accused of involuntary manslaughter saying, "No, I didn't accidentally kill him. I did it on purpose and I did it for you." It's incredibly insulting, and you're not fooling anyone.
