Uninstalling Backup for Workgroups

Should you find it necessary to uninstall Backup for Workgroups, we recommend uninstalling each existing Backup Client before uninstalling the Backup Server software. When you uninstall the Backup Client software, the data that has been backed up by that Client will be retained at the Backup Server, but you will not be able to restore that data without re-installing the Client software. 

At each Client computer

1. Go to the Windows Start Menu, choose Settings/Control Panel.
2. Choose Add/Remove Programs.
3. Select Backup for Workgroups in the list of programs. 
4. Press the Add/Remove button to be guided through the removal process.
5. If you want the stored backup data associated with this Client computer to be removed from the Backup Server, you will need to go to the Backup Server software and delete this corresponding Client Account.

At the computer running the Backup Server software

1. Go to the Windows Start Menu, choose Settings/Control Panel.
2. Choose Add/Remove Programs.
3. Select Backup for Workgroups in the list of programs. 
4. Press the Add/Remove button to be guided through the removal process.
5. When the Backup for Workgroups Uninstall dialog appears, you have two (2) options from which to choose. If you want to remove the Backup Server software and retain your backup data, select the first option. If you want to delete both the Backup Server software and all of the backup data, select the second option.
6. After selecting the appropriate option, press Uninstall.
