      Yeah, my work computer I uninstalled the UWP Notepad by right clicking it in start menu and choosing uninstall. Then when I open Notepad from search or run it opens the old Notepad instead.

        I am aware of Remove-AppXPackage being a thing but I kind of expected the notepad thing to be an integral part of itm
        Probably the usual of replacig the frontend and usi g a skin on top of the old EXE by using it as a backend.

      Only way I’ve found is to have a script that uninstalls certain apps using Powershell on logon. We are rolling out Notepad3 instead, it’s better than UWP or classic, which they patched to nag you about the UWP version.
