    I uninstalled the FH4 from the laptop but it continued to take up space.

    Hi DianaMTS! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Try the following, reinstall the game through the Microsoft Store but when uninstalling do it this way

    Step 1: Open the Settings app. This can be done by clicking its icon in the Start menu or simultaneously pressing Windows logo + I.

    Step 2: Click the Apps category icon and then click Apps & features to see all installed apps as well as classic desktop programs.

    Step 3: Click on the game and uninstall

    And I tried to open "My Captures" after pressing *Windows* + *G* to open the Game Bar. The mouse icon turned to a loading wheel…….. I never saw any File explorer window popout or anything.
