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

    I understand your point of view  Bostjan007, but I strongly believe that we must ask for a REMOVE button.

    It's our right.

    Regards.

    Please at least Hidden Button will be awesome :)

    App - Right click - Hide app

    Bottom where are icons Clear, Install etc. one more icon for "Show All Apps" or "Show Hidden Apps" or/and "Show Only Hidden Apps"

    This would be perfect! I would tried alot more apps, but now can not, because then I would have all apps permanently, and I do not like that.... Now I have only 11 apps!!

    Of course, with Hidden Button I would tried a lot more apps... With remove I would tried all :D Now I am Installing applications very very carefully!

    Now account only for that... NO - I will use only important applications....
