Hi,

random games like Bubble witch and candy crush were randomly installed on my PC? I recently did a clean install so it's not adware.

 

what?

If it's Windurrs Home, that's packaged trash.

Microsoft is doing this now.  They have started installing Bloatware through the Windows store. Even if you uninstall them, most reinstall every time there is an update

Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly; the ill deeds along with the good, and let me be judged accordingly.

That's part of what gets installed after you install windows.

Just right click them and uninstall and they won't come back.

Windows Store bloatware trash. If you really want to stop it, uninstall the WIndows Store through an elevated Powershell. Otherwise, just unpin it from the Start menu and ignore it, as it'll keep on coming back.

It doesn't matter anyway I am quitting PC gaming for a while getting a PS4 because it has the exclusives I want and does not get errors and problems.

You look up PS4 for crashing. May not happen so often but it's a thing nevertheless :)
