Microsoft has now introduced native support for uninstalling both Win32 apps and Microsoft Store apps through the Windows Company Portal.
To utiliZe this feature, end-users can uninstall Win32 apps and Microsoft Store apps if these apps were assigned as available and installed on-demand by the end-users themselves. For Win32 apps, users have the option to enable or disable this feature, although it is turned off by default. On the other hand, the uninstallation feature for Win32/Microsoft Store apps is always available and accessible to end-users.
