Cannot remove installed PWA app from Manage apps
I uninstalled the YouTube TV app under Manage apps, but it's still listed. Now when I try to uninstall it, the Edge browser just closes out. After I reopen the browser, I get the message that the browser had closed unexpectedly. I haven't figured out any way to remove it from the list.
This is sort of related. I also have YouTube installed as an app. When I looked at Apps & Features under Settings/Apps, it shows
YouTube 9/10/2020
YouTube 9.5.2020
YouTube(1) 8.24.2929
I've been trying to get rid of the 2 older installs, but all it does when I click Uninstall is uninstall the current YouTube and the older installs still remain there.

Steve Abraham Same thing is happening to me on google chrome. I still can't figure out what's going on. If you found a solution, I would really appreciate your help

Steve Abraham sorry you're having trouble with this. What happens if you go to edge://apps in the channel where you installed Youtube (Stable, Beta, Dev, Canary)? If you can see the app listed there, what happens when you click the x?

johnjansen When I click on the 'x' for YouTube TV, my Microsoft Edge Dev just closes out. I haven't really used Edge Stable (version 85.0.564.51), so there are no apps listed under edge://apps.
