How to get rid of old apps?

[Dirk Bromberg]

Hi,

How can I avoid of installing all apps I ever tried? Can I delete them in appstore? How? Every time I flash my phone to a new version I'll get these "unwanted" apps...

Thank for a hint!

If you're talking about the 'preinstalled' apps, there isn't anything you can do about it. Just uninstall them after each flash/reset. Doesn't take much time.

If you're talking about apps that you installed once, but never used, and they come back after. Then there is an issue with your backup image. Get your phone looking exactly like you want (screen, installed apps, etc.) then force a backup and make sure it's up on your OneDrive with the proper date/time.

Okay, thanks! Then I'll check the backup! Thanks alot. It feel like there is no way

Remember, even when you get you phone exactly the way you want, with the proper apps installed and properly backed up. With a reset, the "preinstalled" apps WILL return. They are will always come back, but like I said before, it's easy to uninstall them.

Go to your Microsoft account and manage your back-ups, delete older archives that you don't need anymore...
