Programs we should avoid uninstalling (and why)

[sadiogo]

People should avoid uninstalling the "Get Help" app from Microsoft.

I noticed that uninstalling this app removes the ability to run diagnostics or troubleshoot network problems (probably other problems too).

In this case, the only way to run Network Diagnostics is to enable God Mode and use the minitool directly. However, Microsoft said that the Diagnostic minitools will be removed entirely in future releases:

Deprecation of Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT) and MSDT Troubleshooters

Hey there,

Thanks for notifying me of this. I will add a warning label to the app in the UI.
