Device Applications

View installed applications on a device, understand per-user rows, and uninstall supported applications.

Introduction

The Applications tab lists all software installed on a device, as reported by the Level agent. Use it to verify what's installed, check versions, identify which user context an application was installed under, and uninstall supported applications.


Viewing Applications

Open any device and click Applications in the left-side device navigation.

Applications

Each row shows one installed application:

  • Name — application display name

  • Publisher — the publisher as recorded in the OS

  • Version — installed version number

  • Size — install size on disk (-- if not reported by the OS)

  • Install Date — when the application was installed (-- if not recorded)

  • User — the account context under which the application was installed (e.g., System for machine-wide installs, or a specific username for per-user installs)

All columns are sortable. Use the Search field to filter by name or publisher.

Customizing Columns

Click Columns in the top-right corner to show or hide columns. Your selection persists across sessions.


Uninstall an Application

  1. Find the application row you want to remove and open its row actions menu.

  2. Select Uninstall from device.

  3. Review the confirmation, then select Uninstall 1 install.

A Windows device's Applications tab with an installed application row actions menu open and Uninstall from device highlighted

⚠️ WARNING: Confirm the application, version, and user before uninstalling. Each row represents one reported install on this device.

When Uninstall Is Unavailable

The uninstall action is unavailable when the device is offline or the device inventory does not include a supported uninstall command for that application. Bring an offline device back online or use a script or automation that is appropriate for the application and platform.

ℹ️ NOTE: A success message means Level sent the uninstall request to the online device. It does not confirm that the operating system's uninstaller finished. This action does not create an automation run or a separate per-command result page.

After Level sends the uninstall command, the row disappears when the device reports its updated application inventory. The Applications tab is not a live scan of the operating system. If the row still appears after the device reports a fresh application inventory, the uninstall did not complete or the operating system still reports the application. Use an appropriate removal script or automation, or contact Level Support.

For bulk actions across multiple devices, see Applications.


FAQ

  • Can I install or uninstall an application from this tab? You can uninstall one supported application row at a time by opening its row actions menu and selecting Uninstall from device. To install software or run a reusable removal workflow, use an automation or script. For bulk uninstall across devices, use the global Applications page.

  • Why is the same AppX or MSIX application listed for several users? Windows can register packaged applications separately for each local user profile. Level keeps each per-user registration as its own row, so the same application name can appear more than once with different values in the User column. If rows repeat for the same application and the same user, contact Level Support so we can investigate.

  • Why does an application show "--" for Size or Install Date? Some applications don't write size or install date to the OS registry or package manager. When the agent can't retrieve a value, it shows --. This is more common on macOS and Linux than Windows.

  • What's the difference between "System" and a username in the User column?System means the application was installed machine-wide (available to all users). A specific username means it was installed as a per-user application and is only available under that account.

  • Who can see the Applications tab? Any technician with access to the device's group can view the Applications tab. Permissions are managed at the group level — see Workspace → Permissions.
