If you’ve ever struggled to remove pre-installed Windows 10 or Windows 11 apps (like Xbox, Skype, or Cortana), you may have come across references to uwp-helper.bat. This batch script has become a popular tool among IT professionals and power users for managing Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps efficiently.
