I'd say you didn't actually remove the garbage. "Settings, apps, uninstall" doesn't really get rid of it, the deployment package is still hanging around.
You need to use powershell to de-deploy those packages.
It's a bit like the difference between "apt remove" and "apt purge"
Oh I did, I spent hours looking up different pwsh commands and package names to clean it all up
