how do I remove Microsoft Launcher from my phone

I did what Kerila said on 11/15/2017.  I went to the play store and looked up launcher.  You can easily UNINSTALL from there.  I had to turn off the phone and turn it on, but so far it looks like it's gone.  What an absolutely horrid experience!!!!

I decided to respond to an email and sync my phone to 10.  After downloading, ti presented one program after another to download and will not accept a refusal and it keeps showing me ads.  I want my old control system back.  I cannot erase Microsoft launcher but I did deactivate it.  That has helped some. I have trouble getting the home page to have what I need on it and I have difficulty using it as a phone now at times although deactivating it did help this. Can I go back to my old management system on my galaxy 6?

Took a while to find:

Go to 'Settings' then 'Apps'

click on the three little dots at the top right of the screen

select 'Default apps'

select 'Home screen'

switch from the microsoft one to your normal option (eg Samsung Experience Home)

press the 'home button' to confirm the change

after this you can uninstall the microsoft launcher app

you will need to manually change your wallpaper/theme back to whatever you want

This is the answer! This website shows ypu how to change the launcher wizard back to the default

You can then go into apps and the Microsoft Launcher uninstall button is clickable.

Phew!

This is horrible. A big update to try to take over our phones and you still can't get it right.

I have an S8 - there are no three dots showing. Forced Stop works for about 10 seconds then becomes active again, and Uninstall does not work at all.
