I am just curious, what is the best way to uninstall a BF game? I am having trouble with a game so I want to uninstall it and reinstall it to see if it works better. If I click the trash can in the game manager app, it asks if I am sure if I want to PERMANENTLY remove the game from my computer. That word is throwing me off. If I do it there will I be able to reinstall it? Is it best to go through my apps & features under settings?

I probably should have put this post under glitches but I figured any BF user can probably tell me about that trash can in the game manager app.

Yes, it will just be uninstalled from your computer. It won't be removed from your purchase history, so you can just download it again. If it's an older game, it could be issues with the version of Windows on your computer. I know I can't play some of the games I bought because of issues with W10.

Thanks jboliver and Marian! I did the uninstall and reinstalled but the game still doesn't work right. I tried a different desktop launcher and run as administrator and some other small things. Time to contact BF I think.
