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.

    I also agree.  You should be able to remove any app history that you no longer want or need.  I'm now very selective of what apps I try, because I don't want their history hanging around forever.  Microsoft,  this should be fixed!  What explanation do you have for not giving an option to remove app history?  It surely cannot be that difficult to correct.

    A while ago I started switching all of my Microsoft-linked accounts from my gmail account to my outlook account (which is a real pain), and i discovered I had to redownload all my apps to relink them with my new account.

    So for the moment I don't have that problem, but I have a whole lot more.
