I just noticed a new icon on my Windows Task Bar (Meet Now).

I did NOT give Winblows permission to install this new bloatware. I have been able to uninstall all of the other bloatware with no problems, but this one has me stumped. It is very easy to 'hide' it, but I want it off of my computer.

Think they would like to uninstall it entirely. Or is this one of their interlaced pieces that “must” remain installed.

"Exercise your second amendment rights."

I was going to say exercise your fingers, and do a search to find out.

Meet Now is a microsoft application used with Skype to do zoom like meetings. So it is probably under microsoft programs.

What is Meet Now and how do I use it in Skype?

I don’t even have skype installed (and haven’t used it in years..)

(I know it says that in that case, it would use some ‘online’ Skype, which I won’t use)

You can’t uninstall it. You can only hide it:

I noticed the same thing this morning and my searches came up about like yours did. No way to uninstall it and I don't have Skype installed (that I can find).

PC internet has been bad the last several days and I cannot find out why but figure it must be something MS involved since tablets are all getting good 5g connections.

This might be better help for you. Was trying to find something like this before, but I wasn't asking the right question I reckon. 8>)

Great. I don’t use Windows, and am no tech geek. I searched myself using various terms without any luck. Is this in the Outlook mail program, or is it a part of the OS? If it’s the mail program, can you use a different one in its place? I hope you can find a resolution to your problem.
