Uninstalling the Service Center

Dec 14, 2022

To ensure complete removal of all objects, you must work on the application server, database server, and report server. In smaller deployments, these may all be on one server. Larger deployments will have separate devices for each.

Application Server

  2. Open Programs and Features (Windows Vista and newer), or Add or Remove Programs.

  3. Click Barracuda RMM Service Center and choose Uninstall or Remove.

  4. Allow the uninstall routine to complete.

If you are not reinstalling Service Center on the computer, you can eliminate any trace of the application by completing the procedures that follow.

To remove the Windows registry artifacts:
