In the Search Charms bar of Windows 8, the Search bar contains the list of all Apps which you frequently use. But there may be some applications that are not important to you. So a simple solution is to hide those Apps. The process of doing this is very simple and you can later change the settings whenever you want.

Generally you get to view all the Apps in the Search charms bar. See the image below. After hiding an App it will be no longer visible in the Search bar. You will find it at the end of the tutorial. Here I have taken Finance Metro App as an example to show you the process. The following steps will help you to hide or Show Search Charm in Windows 8.
