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?

    Microsoft, let me tell you

    You launcher sucks.

    Does not intuitively do what promises and its hard to manage.

    you take control over people´s phones and try to kill the native system android.

    its awful to go back and makes you panic because you loose your vital info including contacts. IT WAS AN HORRIBLE FELLING.

    I had to reset the phone, because your launcher only has a force stop button and the uninstall does not work.

    I think if a hacker did this on my phone I wouldnt have lost the control as I did with your system

    Hope nobody uses this in the future 

    SINCERELY

    Thank you for your suggestions, most appreciated.

    So now how do I get rid of TouchWiz?  It is more than painful.  

    Many updates are simply unhelpful. Sigh

    I uninstalled it by going back into the 'play store' on my Samsung A5 and searching for 'Microsoft Launcher' and the uninstall option is there. Hope this helps
