Cannot get rid of 2 apps I installed

I'm assuming you've tried to uninstall them using the 'Manager' application.
If you haven't, try that first 😊
If that hasn't worked, try this:

1. Open FExplorer. If you haven't got FExplorer, download it here:

2. Go to the path/folder of the Application. I'm assuming you have installed them to the MMC so the path would be something like,

E:\system\apps

and you will see lots of folders in there that are only labelled by numbers (for Java games/apps) or the name of the application. Go though them one by one. Open the text file in that folder to exactly know the name of the application in that particular folder if you dont see any icons or familiar name.

3. Then if its the correct folder, "move-out" of the folder, click on Options>File>Delete.

4. Then use 'Manager' to uninstall it if its still listed.

5. Reboot.
