I'm having trouble with my graphics settings on Windows. In the Display settings under Graphics, I can reset and remove most games, but one game keeps coming back after I uninstall it. I removed it from the list by uninstalling the app, but once I reinstalled it, there it was again, and I can't remove it this time. Is this a common issue? I find it strange since it seems like only Windows apps can't be removed. Any ideas?

What if the game is a Steam title like Destiny 2? I know Destiny 2 is available for free on the Microsoft Store as well. Could that be why it's appearing as a system app and I can't remove it?
Some apps like Minecraft, Xbox, and others from the Microsoft Store are treated as "system-bound" applications. Because of this, Windows doesn't allow you to completely remove their entries from the graphics profile. You can use the Reset button to clear any custom GPU settings for those games, which is effectively the same as removing them since Windows will revert to default settings.
