# Uninstall the Agent Client Collector agent from a device

Remove the Agent Client Collector \(ACC\) agent from a device to clean up the device after testing or decommissioning, or to reinstall the agent with different configuration settings.

## Before you begin

You must have administrative privileges on the device to uninstall the agent.

Role required: agent\_client\_collector\_admin

## About this task

Before a bulk deployment starts, the agent must be uninstalled from your candidate test devices. Leaving a manually installed agent in place can cause the bulk-deployed agent to register a duplicate record for the same device.

**Important:** Uninstalling the agent from a device doesn't remove its registration from your ServiceNow instance. After you uninstall, deregister the agent. For details, see [Deregister an Agent Client Collector agent](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-operations-management/digital-end-user-experience-dex/deregister-acc-agent.md).

## Procedure

1.  Uninstall the agent using the method for your operating system.
