There are loads of "modern" apps that can't be uninstalled from Win10. Some are in the list but you're not allowed; some aren't in the list.

But it's easy to copy-and-paste a bit of Powershell and just uninstall them anyway:

There are 3rd party tools too: https://www.howtogeek.com/224798/how-to-uninstall-windows-10...

"Microsoft Teams" is present for in Settings -> Apps -> Apps & Features on Win11 for me. But given how they're integrating Teams into the OS, I wouldn't be surprised if I lose the ability to uninstall it soon.

The fact that they are making that huge hunk of trash a core part of Windows tells me everything I need to know about the direction they are headed into. How does anybody put up with Windows in 2022?

They deliberately gray out and disable the button that works for every other application if I recall correctly.
