Can not uninstall secure folder

SKYMAN513

My curiosity got the better of me and so as I could find secure folder on my s7

I searched for it on Samsung apps and it said update.which means it must of had some sort of file on my device but even do a search using the phones built in tool said nothing there.

Any I pressed update thinking that may be one reason why i am having problems but it made no difference 

So in the settings of secure folder it has an uninstall option so I pressed it and it has gone 

But when I go  in to the app store it says update again and not install 

Can any one explain this 

Because I thought uninstall means  what it should mean for every other app

Thanks BANDOFBROTHERS

I tried you suggestion and your instinct was correct.

If I slide the tray in the  play store to the right

you get the list and on my apps you get your installed, updates ,and your history,

and it is in none of them yet when I go into Samsung it's not I'n my apps and no update unless I search for it with data on just type it into search bar secure folder and that's one the of the 2  ways  I can find it .

with data and a search onit will show up in Samsung apps that is the only way it will show but always as an update.

I've no idea but there is a review were send one else is saying they can not 

Uninstall

The only explanation I can think of  is  the branded and unbranded version  may be the latter are the only ones who can uninstall fully!I

Still sounds strange

Thanks for idea though learnt some thing new doing that.
