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

    Well I don't think It's Important to delete it it doesn't take space on the hard disk it's stored on the internet

    Yeah but it clutters the whole "My Apps" section of worthless apps. It's best to just have a delete or hide button like what Google has.

    Agreed.  This "feature" actually prevents me from TRYING apps.
