Step 2: Type the following command:Get-AppxPackage -Name king.com.CandyCrushSaga, copy/paste this command, copy it and in the PowerShell window right-click and select paste.

Step 3: In the results that show up, look for the following: king.com.CandyCrushSaga_1.540.1.0_x86__khqwnzmzfus32 or a bit similar under the ‘PackageFullName’ line. Copy the complete ‘PackageFullName’ for the correct application.

Step 4: Type ‘Remove-AppxPackage’ add space and paste or type the ‘PackageFullName’ that was extracted in step 3. Press Enter for the command to run.

Step 5: Following that, the uninstallation process will be completed. To verify whether the process was successful, repeat step 2. This time the command will result in nothing. This will indicate that your Windows 10 is Candy Crush Saga free.
