<Steps>
  <Step title="Back up Package Security Manager">
    Make sure you [create a backup](./restore) of your logs, artifacts database, and Postgres database before uninstalling. Even if you don't plan to restore your data, it's best practice to have a backup.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Uninstall Package Security Manager">
    1. Open a terminal.

    2. Log in to the server that hosts your Package Security Manager installation.

    3. Navigate to your Anaconda installer directory (`ate-installer-*`) by running the following command:

       ```sh theme={null}
       # Replace <INSTALLER_DIR> with your installer directory
       cd <INSTALLER_DIR>
       ```

           <Tip>
             Start typing `ate-installer-` in your terminal, then press Tab to autocomplete the directory name.
           </Tip>

    4. Shut down your containers:

       ```sh theme={null}
       docker compose down
       ```

    5. Remove Package Security Manager's package data:

       ```sh theme={null}
       rm -rf /opt/anaconda/repo
       ```

    6. Uninstall Package Security Manager and its configurations:

       ```sh theme={null}
       # Replace <INSTALLER_DIR> with your installer directory
       rm -rf <INSTALLER_DIR>
       ```
  </Step>
