DEV Home – This is the developer home page introduced in the Windows 11 update, designed to keep track of your created projects using custom widgets to monitor workload, connect to your GitHub account and repository.
If you are not involved in application development and programming and are a regular user, then this application will be superfluous in Windows 11, since the associated processes DevHome.exe and CoreWidgetProvider.exe can create a load on computer components such as the Processor, Memory and Video Card.
The fact is that Microsoft has made it impossible to uninstall the DEV Home application in Windows 11, but we will look at how to do this in this guide.
