Hi, Kelly,
MS Store seems to have disabled the ability to remove apps from the "three dots."
However, I just updated the Store and all of the history of inexistent/non-installed apps seems to have gone. :)

Hi,
How can I remove history of all apps I don't use currently but have had at some point in the past. MS Store keeps a history of these apps -- I'd like to remove them.

Hi, my name is Kelly, and I'm an independent consultant and I'm here to help.
To remove the history of apps that you have installed in the past but no longer use from the Microsoft Store, you can follow these steps:
Open the Microsoft Store app on your Windows device.
Click on your Microsoft account profile picture in the top-right corner of the app.
Click on "My Library" from the dropdown menu.
This will show you a list of all the apps that you have ever installed or purchased from the Microsoft Store using your Microsoft account. To remove an app from this list, simply click on the three dots icon next to the app and select "Remove" from the dropdown menu.
A confirmation message will appear asking if you are sure you want to remove the app from your library. Click on "Yes" to confirm.
Repeat this process for any other apps that you want to remove from your app history.
Note that removing an app from your library will not delete it from your device if it is still installed. It only removes it from your app history in the Microsoft Store.
That's great news! I'm glad to hear that updating the Microsoft Store resolved your issue. If you have any other questions or concerns in the future, feel free to reach out. Have a great day!
