## Uninstall the PingID integration for Windows Login using CLI

## Before you begin

Before uninstalling PingID from your Windows machine, you should unpair the device. Learn more in [Managing your devices](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingid-user-guide/managing_your_devices/pid_manage_devices_from_myaccount.html) in the PingID User Guide.

## Steps

1. To use the uninstallation program from the command line, run `unins000.exe`, located in the top-level of the installation directory.

2. You can use the following options:

   * `/SILENT`: Don't display the background window, but show the installation progress window.

   * `/VERYSILENT`: Don't display the background window or the installation progress window.

|   | You can uninstall PingID using the uninstallation program from the command line. However, if `/SILENT` or `/VERYSILENT` are used, the completion message is supressed, and you might not know that a system reboot is required. In some cases, the uninstallation isn't fully completed until after a reboot. |
