Nope its not working with " ". Its a Windows store app which automatically gets installed while logging in. In our office we are not supposed to use it so I removed it in apps and features(screenshot attached below). But when a new user logs in, again this microsoft office app shows in user profile. That is the problem i am facing now.
I tried appxpackage its working fine for removing this app for the current user i tried with -allusers also. I need to remove it for all users so i came to an conclusion like to use remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage. but that command is not working both in cmd and powershell.

Csand has done a fantastic job with it, to the point where I use a modified version of it in my MDT deployment sequence. Run it as an administrator with the -allusers flag and it should do exactly what you need.
This script is working fine. But i am not sure how to execute this script for all users? By default its applying for current user. Could you please show me the exact steps where i need to change the switch to all users? Your help is much appreciated.
The best (only?) way to clean this up is to provision a new default start menu. Do this by setting up a start layout you like on a reference PC (or your admin account on the same PC, or ideally in audit mode, before any new accounts are created), and exporting that layout, then importing it into the default profile on your image/new PC.
There are some apps baked into Windows which can never be removed. Some of these are Connect, Edge, Cortana, Mixed Reality Portal, and Get Help. There might be others but this is just off the top of my head.
So there you go. My Decrapifier script that was linked above will do all this for you! But it should be used according to the How-to linked above (and in the script itself!) for best results. Also remember it does a bunch of other stuff you may not want so I encourage you to read through it, or ask me if you need help deciphering it ok!
Your script working fine it does as it should. but my requirement is i should only remove Microsoft.Office.Desktop and not all other apps. Is it possible to modify a script based on my requirement? your help would me much appreciated. And one more question. As per the script it removed stickynotes. Is it possible to get it back? unable to get it through windows store app.
My setup. I'm using the new Edge. I have a personal profile, a work profile, and a profile specifically for dynamics 365. This setup is identical (as far as I can tell) at home but the difference is on my d365 profile at work its continually asking me to use my work account or my d365 account while at home it knows I can only use the d365 account to log in.
Normally this isn't an issue, just choose the account you want and move on. However, in d365 its an issue. It seems as its trying to use my work account over my d365 account and therefore begins to continually prompt me to log in because my work account doesn't have the credentials to access d365. At home, where there is only one on the account choosing prompt, I do not get the issue of constant login prompts.
SO far I've uninstalled Edge via windows uninstaller and restarted. I've used revo uninstaller as well, with a reboot. I've cleared cookies and cache and I cannot get the duplicate account to stop popping up. I've removed the d365 account and re-added to no avail.
I think such work account belongs to an organization and can only be deleted in email & accounts. As you says email & accounts is not an option, you can sign out the profile as a workaround. When you sign out the profile, it will ask you to sign in like this. Then you can sign in with the account you want. Or you can try to remove the profile which having problem and made a new one to see if the issue still persists.
This is the one that worked for me but for me my email was in Settings(desktop settings, not browser settings)->Accounts->Email & Accounts, from there I followed from step #4 and my microsoft account no longer shows up in the Profile window's account selections. Thank you!
First sign in to , using the credential you wanna remove
Then click on your user in the upper left corner, and choose sign-out
After doing this you will see in the next page a button "FORGET THIS ACCOUNT"
I feel like your answer would be correct in almost every sense except in this case I cannot get it to work. I went so far as to delete all browsing data at close, from cookies to saved passwords, deleted all the web credentials. I'm at a loss. I appreciate your help though!

Also trying to be nice, and will desist from usage of asterisked out expletives, but the suggested solution doesn't work, next time you start Outlook the bloody (not an expletive) add-on is back to ticked! I concur with RioREN, computers would be better devices if software could just stick to its primary purpose and not slide its tentacles into everything it can get hold of!! Especially without giving the user a choice (e.g., uninstall module can only remove Evernote completely, not modify)
dddbug, thanks for your posts. I strongly suspect it's Evernote being ever so persistent, not an Outlook bug. If you untick and remove the OneNote plugin, it's gone for good, if you do the same with the Evernote plugin, it comes back when re-starting Outlook. Your trick with removing the dll (EvernoteOL.dll) works, but the user clearly shouldn't have to resort to such measures. Evernote is a fantastic note-taking tool, but a little consideration for all of us who aren't able to fork out for new powerful laptops and have to manage application sprawl would be very decent.
I'm glad you find the Outlook plugin useful, I'm sure many do. Evernote clearly agree that this is such a great feature that it should be force-fed to all Evernote users, alongside the clipper, browser plugins and what have you. All I'm saying is that some of us may want to use Evernote purely as a note-taking facility, and need to keep background services to a minimum to keep our old laptops runnning reasonably smoothly. Thoughtful software developers tend to give you a choice on what extra features to install alongside the core application.
using outlook 2007, it was almost impossible to find the Manage COM Add-ins (it's under the TOOLS \ Trust Center \ Add-Ins \ Manage COM Add-Ins (GO), then select the evernote add-in, and finally click on REMOVE ). oh, you also have to restart outlook after making this change.
having said this, starting outlook on a reasonably high-powered PC took upwards of 90 seconds when evernote's outlook clipper/add-in was installed. once it was removed, outlook took less than 2 seconds to load.
methinks evernote needs to do more testing to find out why its add-in (1) is so difficult to remove (i literally had to wander through damned-near EVERY setting possible), and (2) why having it installed would cause outlook to choke on itself on startup...
I can understand how some users might find benefit from the Evernote add-in in Outlook, but frankly I never use it. I'm sure I am the lesser for not recognizing and utilizing the magic of Evernote integrated in outlook.
I probably wouldn't mind it being there except that every time an Evernote update comes in, and this is pretty frequently, (and I'm happy the support is there) I have to shut down whatever I'm doing in Outlook.
I am in a business environment where Evernote is not allowed for business purposes (IP, security, etc.). I use it for personal notes (and love it, paying for premium), but Outlook is strictly for business - i do not want them mixed up. Besides being a bit difficult to remove, removing the add0in after each update to Evernote is quite annoying.
