1. Open **Settings → Apps → Installed Apps**
2. Search for "FocusMe"
3. Click **Uninstall** and follow the prompts

Alternatively, run the uninstaller from the Start Menu or the installation directory.

<Info>If you have plans with **Enforced** protection active, you may need to wait for them to end before uninstalling. This is by design — Enforced plans are meant to be tamper-resistant.</Info>

## macOS

1. Open **Finder → Applications**
2. Drag **FocusMe** to the Trash
3. Empty the Trash

## Linux

Run the uninstall script:

```bash theme={null}
sudo /Applications/FocusMe/focusme_uninstall_linux.sh
```

This removes the application and desktop integration files.

## After Uninstalling

Uninstalling removes:

* The FocusMe application
* Auto-start entries
* Desktop shortcuts and Start Menu entries

Uninstalling does **not** remove:

* Your settings and plan data (stored in user profile / registry)
* The browser extension (remove it separately from your browser)
* Your FocusMe account (managed at [focusme.com](https://focusme.com))
