How to remove recently added apps from the Windows 10 Start menu

This section shows some of the applications you have installed most recently. If you don't want to see those apps, you can easily change them. Here's how to do it.

Here's the 'Recently Added' section view at the top of the Start menu apps list. It's a small area that shows the names and icons of recently installed apps.
