Getting Data In

Help removing the Windows App

I installed the Windows App for Windows management and let it include recommended data inputs but now want to disable this App because of limited server resources (I'm running slow) but I don't see the option to disable. What do I do?

be aware that will disable the windows apps but if your "data inputs" is not configured in this apps it will not stop data being indexed.
