Unfortunately, if you own an Alienware laptop, you still won’t be able to install the Windows 10 April Update. More specifically, irrespective of what you do, you’ll still get the following error message: ‘Some apps need to be uninstalled. These programs need to be uninstalled because they aren’t compatible with the upgrade: Hybrid laptops with discrete GPU connected to the display.’ Microsoft just acknowledged that it blocked the update on a series of Alienware laptops due to incompatibility issues. The following Alienware laptop models are concerned:

Alienware 13 R3 Alienware 15 R3 Alienware 15 R4 Alienware 17 R4 Alienware 17 R5

So, if you’re getting this message, there is not much that you can do about it. There are no apps that need to be uninstalled. As soon as the Windows 10 April Update will be ready for your Alienware laptop, Microsoft will let you know.
