Un-Installing Microsoft Apps

[pastafreak]

I have a Samsung Galaxy J5....and the memory is almost full. ( who knows what with )
I'd like to un-install Word,Excel and a few other Microsoft apps. Can I? I looked in "settings" and I think I only saw " disable".
These apps seemed to install themselves a month or so ago,and I really have no use for them.

See "Possible cause #1: the app is set as administrator" here:

(Note the word 'possible' there. It's just a suggestion; I'm not guaranteeing it will solve your problem but it's worth checking out)

There seem to be lots of complaints from Galaxy users that Samsung has been installing MS apps as part of OS upgrades. This effectively makes them "pre-installed" apps, which cannot be removed, only disabled (unless you are willing and able to "root" your device. Samsung, of course, get paid by MS for this.
