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?

So very sorry for the inconvience. I am happy though to hear you got your photo back.

2018-05-03T20:36:13+00:00 When I go to the Microsoft Launcher app, the "Uninstall" button is greyed out. I can not uninstall the app. I need to get rid of this app as I can not read the icons on the screen and today, there is a large image that totally hides the icons. I'm 77 with poor eye sight and this app is totally bad for me. I also want my original background photo back - my GrandDaughter's picture.
Please go to the Google Play Store and look for Microsoft Launcher in your list of apps and when you find it , click uninstall. I'm not sure about your picture being retrieved though.
