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

    The most ridiculous thing about the unwanted store "purchase" history is that it contains references to apps tried years ago that may no longer even exist or have been replaced by other versions. Is MS saying they sync every user's history and update it dynamically? I've been tinkering with computers for 40 years. Games and apps come and go, just like operating systems.
