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?

    Go back to play store and delete from there. You will be prompted to use another launcher that you had before.  You will be stuck with the wallpaper they installed.

    just spent the first hour with my new computer trying to figure how to uninstall the garbage Microsoft pushed to my phone. About 90% back to normal.

    Microsoft, this is a horrible answer.  

    You didn't just link our phones, you completely overrode the navigation, in a way that makes it hard to find all the apps we know we'll need.  And now I've uninstalled, I see you've even disconnected the photo I like to have on my home and lock screens.

    I'm still not sure what the benefits were going to be...but this level of depersonalization was not cool.

    I deactivated all its permisssions - then I went to playstore and voila it was open or uninstall - i got rid of it - this is a flagrant attempt by billy gates micromob to hijack android phones
