Hi there,

I noticed that WhatsApp isn't appearing in appwiz.cpl, even though it is installed on my laptop. When I search for it using the taskbar search, I can see it installed on my system. Why is it not visible in appwiz.cpl?

    Hi, @Kiran Varekar

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Most of the apps that are pre-installed in Windows 11 are installed via the Microsoft Store and therefore do not show up in Programs and Features.

    You can find it in Setting\Apps\Apps&features
