<p>Windows 11, the latest operating system from Microsoft, has a few parts that some people find annoying instead of helpful. One problem is that you can&#8217;t put the taskbar on the side of the screen, which some users would like to do. Another issue is that some apps come with Windows 11 that you can&#8217;t easily get rid of, even if you don&#8217;t want them. These apps, which some people call &#8220;bloatware,&#8221; are small programs that come preinstalled when you start using the computer.</p>

<p>But now, Microsoft seems to be changing its approach. In a new version of Windows 11 that is being tested, you can remove some of these built-in apps. This test version is now available in the &#8220;Canary&#8221; channel.</p>
<p>In this test version, you can remove only a few apps. For example, you can uninstall the Camera app, Cortana, Photos, People, and the Remote Desktop client. These apps do different things, but many people have said they don&#8217;t really use them. It&#8217;s nice to see that Microsoft is listening and allowing its customers to get rid of apps that they don&#8217;t need.</p>
<p>The Camera app is for taking pictures and videos with a tablet&#8217;s camera, but it&#8217;s not very useful for regular computers. Cortana used to be a voice assistant, but it&#8217;s not so helpful anymore, and Microsoft even plans to shut it down. The People app is a digital address book, and it works with other apps to help you keep track of appointments. As for the Photos app, some people use it, but others prefer different third-party apps. The Remote Desktop client lets you control another computer over the internet or in local LAN, which is mostly used by computer professionals on a daily basis.</p>
<p>These changes are happening in a test version, so we&#8217;ll have to wait to see if they will be released to everyone. Microsoft is planning a big update for Windows 11 in September, so maybe we&#8217;ll get these changes then. Please have in mind that even if you delete these apps, it might not free up much space on your computer.</p>
