Getting rid of Groove Music

Orionaut · 1 Dec 2016 at 22:16

This seems to work.

Open Powershell

Enter "Get-AppxPackage *zunemusic* | Remove-AppxPackage"

And now everything seems to default to media player. Like it used to, and like how I liked it!

Bliss! :cool:

HTH helps somebody.

I ran this, tbh I never like it when it loads "Groove Music" so I don't need it

must say, I am somewhat surprised that the acronyms that were commonplace and well understood 20 years ago have been all but forgotten. :confused:

Somebody will come along in an moment and ask what LASER means?

(and lets not go to SNAFU or FUBAR!

)

But I like Infectious Grooves. Why would I want to get rid?

HTH helps - makes no sense, I think it's probably you that isn't fully understanding the acronym.

Can find powershell but can't find the Windows & other software sub forum...

G-MAN2004 · 2 Dec 2016 at 00:25

What the hell is groove music and why would I get rid of it when I can't hear it?

Akagi · 2 Dec 2016 at 00:33

Just change the default app and stop being a donut?

The not in the groove thread...

and seemingly totally unaware of the much simpler, default app settings page.
Then probably complains when his computer is unstable.

Music all went wrong after we moved away from wax cylinders.

There is also a PS command which removes all Apps (it's much better)
