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.

    That was not helpful at all. Horrible user friendliness. I'm so annoyed.

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

    Frankly ... it took YEARS of users' swearing and shouting before G**gle added this feature to Play.

    So I believe this feature will be available in Store as well.

    I don't know if Windows Phone wants to stick around for another 4 years, but since I'm on Lumia since the 800/late 2011 and having 500+ "purchases" in my apps with 2/3rds junk or discontinued apps it's just getting absurd.

    It can't be too much to ask to add a hide functionality, that keeps the apps in the purchase log but hides them from the my apps list on the device if unchecked and shows them with a show all toggle or in the browser. 

    Even Steam has a hide functionality for more than a year by now, in it's owned games list by now but keeps a separate purchase log.
