      The only solution I've found is to use the below command to find out which user the app is installed on (in my case it was the built-in local administrator account), then delete that user profile from sysdm.cpl:

       

       

       

      Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.PPI* | Select-Object -Property Name,PackageFullName,PackageUserInformation | Format-List
