# Deleting group of systems from System Tree (Windows only)

You can remove Trellix Agent from a group of systems by deleting the group from **System Tree**. This is the primary method for performing a bulk uninstallation of the agent from the Trellix ePO console.

### Caution

When you delete a group, all its child groups and systems are also deleted.

### Important

- For **ePO - SaaS**: The standard deletion steps below will remove the agent.
- For **ePO - On-prem**: You **must** uninstall all point products (such as Trellix Endpoint Security) from the client systems **before** deleting the group.

  - If point products are not uninstalled first, the Trellix Agent will not be removed. Instead, it will convert to **unmanaged mode** to continue supporting the remaining products.

1. On ePO - On-prem, select Menu → Systems → System Tree, then select a group to be deleted.
2. At the bottom of the page, select System Tree Actions → Delete Group.
3. Select **Remove Trellix Agent on next agent-server communication from all systems**, then click **OK**. Trellix Agent is removed from the system during the next Agent-server communication.
