Ever tried to delete the built-in/preinstalled Windows 10 apps but they won’t go away?
C:\Windows\System32> Get-AppxPackage *Zune* -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
Remove-AppxPackage : Removal failed. Please contact your software vendor.

The solution is here. Use -PackageTypeFilter:
C:\Windows\System32> Get-AppxPackage *Zune* -PackageTypeFilter Main, Bundle, Resource -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
There, gone! You can check C:\Program Files\WindowsApps and see that the directory has been deleted.
