Hi Enderninja_846! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

This could be that you didn't run PowerShell as an administrator or the app is not currently installed, as the error message is about files missing, you can also try this way to uninstall it

Open RegEdit as an administrator and delete the following Services:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServices]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServicesNet]

Reboot PC

It's ok. I found a different way to fix my problem without having to uninstall anything, but thanks anyway!

I’m having this same issue on top of others. Games that were working perfectly fine yesterday all the sudden have started to freeze upon startup. I notice my kids had filled the hard drive to 97% capacity. I thought maybe this was my problem so I went to uninstall and nothing happens no matter what I do. I also went to do your option above and reset console and when I press the button absolutely nothing happens. I don’t know what’s wrong?
