Windows 10: Can't delete menu items

Having just got a new PC with W.11 I find there are several items in the Start menu that I will have no use for e.g. Booking.com etc & I'd like to remove them.When I right click on the item it shows an Uninstall option some items don't even give that but it only takes me to a list of apps where the offending item is not listed.So how can these things be removed?Also, with MS Office Pro Plus 2021 there are some programs I will never use e.g. Access & there seems no way to remove these.I thought W.11 was supposed to be easier. Not so far!!

Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

Hey mate (yes im from australia)

I had this problem just before and fixed it pretty easily.
Have to use the good old command prompt and delete from there.
Windows is just gettin shitter and shitter isnt it. might go back to DOS soon lol

Steps> CMD in run > go to the folder (start menu folder) > type: DEL (watever the filename is) and if it says from filename put in the shortname eg. 034Michael short would maybe be 034Mich~l or sumthing like that.

THIS WILL WORK, THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME 4 TIMES NOW LOL fukin vista!!*Bang Head :banghead:

 

Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

I'm trying to delete an unneeded folder from the Start Menu. I right-click and then "Explore", navigate to "Programs", select the folder and press delete.

It won't let me delete the folder! (It is an empty folder.) The error that comes up is:

The thing is, the folder IS there. I'm sitting here looking at it. Why is Windows telling me it doesn't exist, and more importantly, how can I finally delete this useless empty folder which is cluttering up my Start Menu?
