    I just checked the size of the appxBundle and holy hell !! It is 602.92 MB just for for Photos app.

    Seriously WTF? The problem is the bloat and now it adds extra Video Editor shortcut. Microsoft tries hard to shove down our throats all the Metro/Modern garbage. But no one seems to be interested in it. Especially the savvy peeps here at MDL.

    This is the package: Microsoft.Windows.Photos_2018.18081.14710.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appxbundle

    Are Microsoft slowly fading into non-existence?

    Microsoft can't resist presenting us with bloatware. It's in their nature to create bloated apps

    a lot of the uwp apps are bloated, have you seen the size of the games? a lot of the so called AAA games are bigger than GTAV which is just madness.
