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

    You do know Microsoft bought Nokia? www.microsoft.com/en-us/news/press/2013/sep13/09-02announcementpr.aspx So basically it's just going to be like Microsoft now.

    Microsoft acquired Nokia Lenovo is going to acquire black berry what's going on I think I'm going to be acquired I'm curious this is my real feeling....

    So I think after 30 or 40 years there will be only three or four companies acquire all other companies Then one of them acquire the 3 others it will be like an elimination  and at last one company acquires everything

    and we can apply this in all other sides for example usa acquires England and China acquires France and at the end one of them acquire the another and the world

    (I'm crazy I know no need to say it)

    It wasn't for no apparent reason I quoted my 1998 Nokia....it's a very sad state of affairs!!! I do have hope and  think as more and more non "statistical" people complain we can expect change eventually....but not before Microsoft can collect "non identifiable information" to sell on about you and me and what we choose to download look at or chat about..

    It's becoming almost intolerable that the moment that I type "lawnmowers" in a chat with a friend about cutting the grass that immediately my sidebar is filled with specials on lawnmowers....this age will end as others did....the impact of "oh what surprise!! WOW! how did you know I was look for exactly that!"

    Now it's just stalking! I put it to them - what is the difference between a (1) man following my child to school as apposed to (100) advertising bodies watching my child's activities online???

    Truth is I think the threat is greater and more damaging to my kids health and well-being and future...

    time for a change in attitude or legislation.. we have a right not to be tracked like this...especially minors!!!

    There is a way to do it,but you have to master reset your phone

    Reset phone? Why do you need to do that when its an PC Operating System, not the Windows Phone?
