Removing Apps

If you no longer want an app installed on your computer, you can remove it by uninstalling it. To do this, use the following steps:

1. Display the Start screen.
2. Right-click the app that you want to remove. Windows puts a checkmark on the app’s tile and displays a menu at the bottom of the screen (see Figure 37.12).
