# Uninstall NebulaGraph Studio

Follow the steps for your installation method. Back up any configuration and data you need before uninstalling.

## Docker Compose

If NebulaGraph Studio was started by NebulaGraph Database Developer Edition's supplied `compose.yaml`, run this in that file's directory to disable and remove the Studio container:

````
ACCEPT_EULA=Y docker compose up -d --scale studio=0

````

For PowerShell syntax, see [Windows PowerShell](https://dev-docs.nebula-graph.io/v5.3.2/get-started/deploy/#powershell).

The `studio-data` volume is preserved. Include `--scale studio=0` in future `up` commands for the full deployment if you still do not need Studio. To stop the interface temporarily, use [Stop and start Studio separately](https://dev-docs.nebula-graph.io/v5.3.2/get-started/deploy/#studio-lifecycle). To remove the full NebulaGraph Database Developer Edition deployment, follow [Remove Docker Compose services](https://dev-docs.nebula-graph.io/v5.3.2/get-started/deploy/#remove-compose).

If you used a separate `studio-compose.yaml`, run this in its directory:

````
docker compose -f studio-compose.yaml down

````

This stops and removes the container but preserves the `studio-data` volume. You can reuse its data when you deploy again.

If you no longer need the data, remove the volume:

````
docker compose -f studio-compose.yaml down -v

````

This permanently deletes the volume's contents.

## TAR package

Enter the extracted installation directory containing `bin`, `etc`, and `scripts`, then stop the service:

````
sudo ./scripts/studio.service stop all
sudo ./scripts/studio.service status all

````

After confirming that the service has stopped, back up the configuration and data in the installation directory. Then remove the entire installation directory from its parent directory.

## RPM or DEB package

Before removal, back up any configuration in `/etc/nebula-studio/`, data in `/var/lib/nebula-studio/`, and logs in `/var/log/nebula-studio/` that you need to keep.

### RPM package

Stop the service and remove the package:

````
sudo systemctl stop nebula-studio.service
sudo rpm -e nebula-studio

````

### DEB package

Stop the service and remove the package:

````
sudo systemctl stop nebula-studio.service
sudo dpkg -r nebula-studio

````
