Delete V-appstore

I have been using vivo device form past 8 years.


I just bought iqoo neo 9pro and as an android developer, i do a heavy customization of my device.


I used to run shell scripts via Adb using USB debugging to install or uninstall apps. 

I uninstalled V-appstore on my vivo z1pro and even om my V3 max.


Whenever i try the same adb command 

"Pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.vivo.appstore" 


It returns 

[DELETE_FAILED_USER_RESTRICTED]


That clearly means iqoo is the primary user on my device who has access to my system events and denying me permissions to execute Adb commands even when i am in developer mode which is definitely a breach to data privacy and security. 


I think indian govt should definitely look into this matter as its a serious issue if i cant access a file or a package on my own device & someone else is controlling these permissions on a hardware which contains and is used to access highly sensitive informations
