Windows 10 comes with several applications installed by default such as the Mail application. For some, this is an extremely useful application as they constantly open emails and it is much easier to have the application already installed than constantly opening emails from a browser.
Normally these applications by default open automatically when you turn on your PC and this seems boring and a little annoying to many people as it will always appear on the screen regardless of whether you use them or not.
Uninstalling applications that already came with a operating system by default it's not that simple. Although Windows comes with a tool for uninstalling programs, unfortunately the default applications cannot be uninstalled by this tool, but you can uninstall it without any kind of program.
Later we will see how to remove or uninstall the Mail application from Windows 10 itself and also using third party programs.
Delete the mail application from Windows 10
To be able to remove it from Windows you need to use the PowerShell as it is not possible from the application uninstall tool as mentioned above.
PowerShell is a Windows input resource. It is an improved and advanced version of the traditional command prompt. With it you can run and remove advanced or integrated applications in the operating system.
In order to open the PowerShell command it is necessary to press the Windows key and the letter R at the same time or simply by opening the command directly from the menu by placing "PowerShell" in the browser. Enter the following command and press Enter: Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps | Remove-AppxPackage
After giving Enter, the mail application and calendar link would be completely deleted from your computer.
In case you want to delete other applications by default on your computer, here we leave you a list of commands to be able to delete them via PowerShell.
