Automated Uninstall

To uninstall the Level agent, find the agent on the Device List page, choose the three dots at the right of the row, and choose Delete. The target device will uninstall Level automatically within 5 minutes. If the device is currently offline, the uninstall command will be sent when the device comes online again.

Deleting an agent will uninstall Level on the target computer If a device is deleted, the agent will need to be re-installed in order for it to show up in the device list again.

Manual Uninstall

Windows

& 'C:\Program Files\Level\level.exe' --action uninstall

Mac

/usr/local/bin/level --action uninstall

"Level is already installed" error when attempting to install

We have seen some cases where Level wasn't uninstalled cleanly, and an attempted reinstall states that Level is already installed. In these cases the Level service may need to be manually deleted which can be done with the following command:

sc.exe delete "Level"

Once the service is deleted then attempt to reinstall Level.
