Via Control Panel
To be able to uninstall Windows 10 programs you can first of all contact the appropriate function attached to Control Panel Windows. So, to start with, click the Start button (The pennant located in the lower left corner of the screen) on the taskbar and, in the search field that is shown to you at this point, type control panel then click on the first result in the list, the one you find next to the wording Best match.
In the window that is now shown on your desktop, click on the item Uninstall a program che trovi sotto the dicitura Programs, on the left. If you can't see these items, make sure they are in the menu View by: located at the top right the option is selected Category (and if not, select it, of course). Alternatively, type uninstall a program in the search field located at the top right and click on the item Uninstall a program that is shown to you in the window.
Now, locate the software you intend to remove from the list of programs that is shown to you, select it by left clicking on it and then press the button Uninstall or Uninstall / Change which is located at the top.

Once the entire uninstallation procedure is complete, the previously selected program will be removed and will no longer be available on your computer. Clearly, in case of second thoughts you can always install the removed application again.
Keep in mind that in case you have to uninstall multiple programs on Windows 10 you will have to carry out the steps I have just described for each application on which you intend to act. I know, it's a bit of a nuisance but unfortunately at the moment the operating system does not integrate a function that allows you to remove multiple programs at the same time, sorry.
Via system settings
In addition to the "normal" programs, on Windows 10 there are also applications. Some of these are already pre-installed on the system and cannot be removed while others can be deleted without problems. The difference between uninstalling Windows 10 programs and removing applications, however, lies in the procedure that must be adopted to succeed. In the case of apps, in fact, it is necessary to take advantage of the special function attached to the section Settings of system.
To delete one or more apps from Windows 10 you must therefore click on button Home Windows after which you have to click on the icon Settings (Quella a forma di gear wheel) from the menu that opens and you have to click on the icon System located at the top left of the window that at this point is shown to you on the desktop.
Once this is done, select the item App and features from the left sidebar, click on the name of the program to remove and press the button Uninstall twice in a row. In most cases, you can always click on to finish removing a program NEXT o Next.
By default, the applications installed on Windows 10 are sorted by name but you can optionally change the display mode by expanding the drop-down menu at the top and selecting, depending on what your needs and preferences are, the 'option Sort by size (to sort apps by their size) or Sort by installation date (to sort apps by their installation date)
