+### AppX Packages
+
+Open **AppX Removal** from the Tweaks tab to manage the listed Windows apps. Select one or more packages, then choose **Install Selected** or **Remove Selected**.
+
+When installing a selected package, WinUtil first registers an existing local `AppxManifest.xml`. If no usable local manifest remains, WinUtil installs the package from the Microsoft Store through WinGet when a Store product ID is available.
+
+During AppX installation or removal, the window-level progress bar shows the current package, completed package count, and overall progress. The Windows taskbar also reflects progress and the final success or failure state.

 Essential Tweaks are the safest starting point for most systems. They focus on lower-risk changes that improve usability, reduce noise, and avoid the more invasive changes found in advanced options.
