By default, Windows 10 comes with some applications installed automatically. While some prefer this attitude, many would not. For example, under Windows 10, some playlists open with Groove Music, even if you want to open them with Windows Media Player. Groove Music App on Windows 10 is a brand new application that lets you play your music collection and create and play playlists.
Normally, you delete or disable this application completely by simply performing a 2-click operation, i.e. right-clicking on an application in the All Applications list in the Start menu and selecting Uninstall. Unfortunately, Microsoft does not allow you to uninstall this Groove Music application as usual.
As a last option, you can use one Windows Powershell cmdlet to completely remove this application.
Playback: Groove music often crashes.
