# Uninstalling WXP Insights for Windows Agent with Group Policy

## Introduction

This article provides step-by-step instructions for IT administrators to create a Group Policy Object (GPO) that automates the uninstallation of the WXP Insights agent for Windows across domain-joined devices. This method is particularly useful for organizations managing large device fleets, enabling centralized removal and device unenrollment during offboarding, reimaging, or software transitions.

The article provides step-by-step guidance to link the GPO in Active Directory and apply the uninstallation PowerShell script via startup policies to ensure seamless removal during the next system reboot.

### Creating a Group Policy Object

To create a Group Policy Object to uninstall the WXP Insights agent for Windows:

1. Download the Uninstallation PowerShell script from [here](https://ftp.hp.com/pub/caps-softpaq/HP_DaaS/DaaS%20Client%20Scripts/GPO/Install/WXP-Insights-Installation-Scripts.zip).
2. Extract the uninstall script.
3. To open the Group Policy Management console, enter `gpmc.msc` at the command prompt on the Active Directory (AD) Domain Controller.
4. Select **Create a GPO in this domain and Link it here**….
5. Name the Group Policy Object “Uninstall WXP Insights for Windows Application”.
6. Select **Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Scripts (Startup/Shutdown) > Startup.**
7. In the **Startup Properties** window, select the **PowerShell Scripts** tab.
8. Select **Show Files.**
9. Copy the script file into the folder.
10. In the **Startup Properties** window, select **Add.**
11. Browse and select the `wxp-insights-uninstall-script.ps1`file.
12. To exit the window and apply the settings, click **OK**. The client computer receives the Group Policy update during the next refresh interval. When the client computer restarts or starts up, the **Uninstall WXP Insights for Windows Application** Group Policy object is applied, and the device is automatically unenrolled from WXP Insights for Windows services.

> **Note**: To successfully unenroll devices, they must be connected to the Internet.
