How To Remove “Most Used Apps” From Windows 10 Start Menu

Even with a colorful interface and innovative apps, Windows 10 is not perfect. With all the bugs and the glitches, it is safe to say that it was a half-baked cookie, when Microsoft took it out of the oven and served on the platter.

However, one of its greatest assets is customization. For instance, Windows 10 enables you to customize the entire list of Most Used Apps from the Start Menu.

If you want to remove an individual app from the list or you don’t want it to show any info at all, then you have a solution. In this article, we have listed a step by step guide to get rid of the Most Used Apps list or remove some apps from it.

  1. Locate the Windows button at the bottom left-hand side corner to pull up the Start Menu.
  2. Right click on a listed program under Most Used Apps.
  3. Click More > Don’t show in this list.
  4. Now, the next time, you go to Start Menu, you would not see the removed app.
