What drives me nuts... I have a bunch on game icons on my desktop, which is cool, and mostly caused from being a Humble Bundle subscriber. But when I start playing one and realize that I really don't like the game, so I want to uninstall it.
So then I have to go down the line of different launchers to see which one it was installed with. Which is enough of a pain in the itself. But of course, each one also has to install an update before you can figure it out. This is just getting out of… See More
control these days! I count 7 different launchers/gaming platforms, or whatever they are officially called, that I currently have... and am probably missing counting a few. This is getting ridiculous.
No matter how they are installed, you should be able to go to one spot, like Windows Apps, and uninstall them from there... but you can't.
IMO, this is a big flaw with Windows and why Android is gaining serious ground.
That isn't a windows issue, as Steam for instance does add them to the Windows Add/Remove.
It can be done, but it is down to the developer of the launcher to implement that.
Though there could do with being more robust tracking/removal of files available to all installers.
