+Uninstalling CycloneDDS
+######################
+
+*****
+Linux
+*****
+
+Uninstalling CycloneDDS on Linux can be established by invoking
+the following two commands (of which the first is optional):
+::
+
+    sudo dpkg --remove cyclonedds-dev
+    sudo dpkg --remove cyclonedds
+
+.. note::
+    Mind the order in which these commands are run. The development
+    package (:code:`cyclonedds-dev`) need to be removed first since
+    it depends on the library version (:code:`cyclonedds`).
+
+*******
+Windows
+*******
+
+There are two ways to uninstall CycloneDDS from Windows
+
+1. By using the original CycloneDDS :ref:`MSI <WindowsInstallMSI>` file
+2. By using Windows "Apps & features"
+
+Original MSI
+============
+
+Locate the original CycloneDDS MSI file on your system and start it.
+After clicking :code:`Next`, an overview of options appears, amongst which
+is the remove option. By clicking :code:`Remove`, all files and folders are
+removed, except the CycloneDDS examples (if installed).
+
+Apps & features
+===============
+
+Go to :code:`Windows Settings` by clicking the :code:`Settings`-icon ( |settings_icon| )
+in the Windows Start Menu. Choose :code:`Apps` in the
+:code:`Windows Settings` screen. A list of all installed apps
+and programs pops up. Select :code:`CycloneDDS` and choose :code:`Uninstall`.
+All installed files and folders will be removed, except the
+CycloneDDS examples (if installed).
