To remove agents from Windows devices, go to the Control Panel's Program and Features > Uninstall option to remove the SolarWinds agent. Another way to remove an agent is to change the polling method -- an option to remove the existing agent will appear.
To remove agents from Linux devices, see Remove an agent from a Linux-based device.
To reinstall agents, deploy them via the Manage Agents page in the Orion Web Console, or manually download and install agent.
