Hi, This is addressed more to Microsoft than the Forum at large:
My Reliability Monitor would be running at 10 most if not all of the time if it weren't for those terrible Apps. It makes the Reliability Monitor look like a Snakes & Ladders Board with a preponderance of Snakes.
I only use about 4 Apps and the rest, where possible I have uninstalled only to have them reinstalled without my consent by 'Updates'. Hardly a week goes by without one or more of these unused Apps failing.
When are Windows going to allow us to remove Apps we don't want and/or also make them more reliable?
I like my Windows 10 and would give high marks if it weren't for the appalling Apps.
H, you might like to post that here for example:

Thank you, I've just done so.H, you might like to post that here for example:

Matter of interest; the Map App I uninstalled yesterday was attempted to be auto re-installed today by Updates and failed.
These things really need Microsoft's urgent attention; they are a blot on the OS.
The way I use it is simple: ignore the Win 10 start menu and Cortana except to check occasionally they are working.
Don't fiddle with Settings beyond a few basics.
Use Classic shell as start menu replacement (Win 10's start menu fails to express a traditional hierarchical start menu usably or usefully).
Change the appearance to get pastel backgrounds and title bars.
Replace about 77 icons with win 7 icons (using a program).
Use Win 10 after the fashion of Win 7- normal desktop programs.
Support with disk imaging and system restore on, + daily scheduled restore point.

Actually I use my PC as W7 with all frequent icons on Taskbar and only venture into Start for the Weather App. I seldom if ever use any other App. However I find not infrequent 'failings of Apps' in the Reliability Monitor even though not used.
As stated earlier even removing Apps doesn't work as Windows reinstalls them again uninvited.
I may well give your suggested method a try it things don't improve.
Thank you.
Despite the above, there are some interesting apps available via the Store (free too).
