How to remove the Samsung Printer Experience App?

Introduction

My computer at work is installed with Windows 10 (sorry…).

I recently had the unpleasant surprise of seeing a piece of software installed without my consent: the Samsung Printer Experience App.

Windows 10 | Start menu, Samsung Printer Experience icon

So, since I don't want it, I don't need it. So I'll show here what I did to remove it.

PowerShell

  • First we need to open a PowerShell console with administrator rights:
Windows 10 | Start a PowerShell admin console
  • Then search for the Samsung application:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | ? { $_.Name -match "samsung" }
  • Found it!:
Windows 10 | PowerShell get-appxpackage command.

Remove

  • Now that we have the full name: SAMSUNGELECTRONICSCO.LTD.SamsungPrinterExperience, we can serenely remove the WinApp:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | ? { $_.Name -match "SAMSUNGELECTRONICSCO.LTD.SamsungPrinterExperience" } | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
  • That's it!:
Windows 10 | PowerShell remove-appxpackage
Windows 10 | PowerShell get-appxpackage command.

Update: Lexmark Printer Home

Windows 10 | Start menu, Lexmark Printer Home

As with Samsung Printer Experience, a new application has appeared out of nowhere: Lexmark Printer Home, so let's apply exactly the same method.

  • Search for a lexmark app:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | ? { $_.Name -match "lexmark" }
  • Bingo!:
Windows 10 | PowerShell get-appxpackage command.

Remove

  • Now that we have the full name: 58539F3C.LexmarkPrinterHome, we can serenely remove the WinApp:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | ? { $_.Name -match "58539F3C.LexmarkPrinterHome" } | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
