+# Uninstallation
+
+WendzelNNTPd can be uninstalled with `make uninstall` if you installed it from source.
+`./configure` needs to be called with the same parameters as during installation.
+You need superuser access to uninstall WendzelNNTPd.
+It is recommended to use the same version of the sources of WendzelNNTPd as the one installed.
+The configuration files, SQLite database, postings and log files are left in place to prevent data loss.
+You need to remove them manually if desired.
+
+```console
+$ ./configure
+$ sudo make uninstall
+```
