What Will Happen to
Recordings when I
Remove the Surveillance
Software?
To remove the entire XProtect Basis+
surveillance system (i.e. the surveillance
server software and related installation files,
the video device drivers, the Download
Manager, the Viewer and the Smart Client)
from your server, do the following:
Your recordings will not be removed; they will
remain on the server even after the server
software has been removed. Likewise, the
XProtect Basis+ configuration file will remain
on the server; this allows you to reuse your
configuration if you later install XProtect
Basis+ again.

components.
2. In Windows’ Start menu, select Control
Panel, and select Add or Remove Programs.
3. In the Add or Remove Programs window’s list of currently installed programs, select the
Milestone XProtect Basis+ system entry (not the Milestone XProtect Basis+ entry) and
click the Change/Remove button.
4. The setup wizard appears; click the Next button, then the Remove button.
5. Select Remove entire surveillance system, then click Next, and complete the wizard’s
remaining steps.
