Removal of the XProtect Professional VMS system

Eventually, the XProtect Professional VMS recording archives become so old that they are automatically deleted. When the last archive has expired, you should do the following to remove the software:

If you installed XProtect VMS on the same computer hardware:

1. On the XProtect VMS management server, go to the administrative installation page and download the Event Server installer.
2. On the XProtect Professional VMS server, go to Windows' Add/Remove Programs feature and Uninstall the XProtect Professional VMS software.

The XProtect VMS event server is removed. You need to reinstall it:

1. Run the downloaded Event Server installer.
2. After installation you can see the tray icon of the event server. Right click the icon to see the status, to make sure it is running.

If you installed XProtect VMS on new computer hardware:

1. On the XProtect Professional VMS server, go to Windows Add/Remove Programs feature and Uninstall the XProtect Professional VMS software.
2. Repeat the uninstall step for all recording servers.
