uninstalls
Purges installed programs
Uninstalls is the process of removing software from a computer or device, reversing an installation.
The term applies both to the action and to dedicated programs that perform it: The uninstalls took longer than expected.
As a verb, it's the third-person singular: She uninstalls the app and reinstalls it when it glitches.
