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?

    If you have an android phone, you can find the Microsoft launcher in the play store and uninstall it there!

    Good Thinking!

    I've seen that 'uninstall' button countless times but I never thought of using it in this way.

    Despite doing software support for almost 50 years, I always learn new things from other people. I'm sure this will be a very useful thing to know and I'll remember you for it.

    Many Thanks,

    Jam

    The answer that worked for me was posted above:

    1. go to the Google Play store
    2. search for Microsoft Launcher
    3. when it is found, you will have two active buttons: "Uninstall" and "Open"
    4. choose "Uninstall" and it will uninstall!

    It's as easy as that!

    Just go to Play Store, look up Microsoft Launcher and click uninstall there. Then you have to choose Touch Wiz as your (original) launcher, when you exit Google Play Store.
