Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community Forums.

From your issue description , I understand that you need to delete the uninstalled App history from the Windows App Store.

Unfortunately its not possible to delete the uninstall App history in the windows 8 App store. Its designed like that .So in future if you want install any of these apps again in your computer you don’t to have search for that in the whole App Store. You can just select “My Apps” and from there you can install that once again very easily.

Hope this helps. Please get back to us if you have any other questions

    Yes you are ok because you are using Windows 10. Only Windows 8.x have this problem, but the reason is like others say only one -> They want to all use Windows 10 <- but this is NOT fair it is our/my computer, and I will chose what will use on my computer not company. At home is Windows 8.1 on all computers sure soon we will go on Windows 10. The problem is why? Why would I buy "new" car, if the old one is old only 3 years (October 17, 2013)? Sure this is different but still for now I just don't trust windows 10, in a year sure I will go on 10. How about other users someone like Windows 10 others not very much and they like 8.1.

    What I hate is this - When companies forcing users to use/like something even if they don't like.
