# Delete Clients

> Permanently remove an offline or uninstalled Client and all its recorded sessions from the database, individually or in bulk.

Deleting a Client permanently removes it from the database, along with every session it recorded. Once deleted, the Client disappears from the Management Tool and its data is no longer viewable anywhere.

<Note>
  Deleting a Client also deletes any one-time password records generated for it.
</Note>

<Warning>
  Only offline or uninstalled Clients can be deleted. [Uninstall the Client](/docs/administration/clients/uninstall) first — locally or remotely — if it's still installed.
</Warning>

<Note>
  If a deleted Client ever reconnects to the Application Server, it reappears in the Management Tool as a new Client — its previously deleted data doesn't come back.
</Note>

## Delete a single Client

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Client">
    Log in to the Management Tool as a user with the [administrative Database Management permission](/docs/administration/users/administrative-permissions), click **Clients**, and find the offline or uninstalled Client. Click its name in the **Client Name** column.

    <Tip>
      Use the Search box and filters at the top of the Client Management tab to find it quickly.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Delete it">
    On the **Editing Client** page, **Properties** tab, click **Delete Client** at the bottom of the page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm">
    Click **Delete** in the confirmation message.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Delete multiple Clients at once

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select the Clients">
    On the **Client Management** tab, select the checkboxes next to the offline or uninstalled Clients to delete.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start the bulk delete">
    Click **Bulk Action** (top left), then select **Delete Clients**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm">
    In the **Delete Clients** confirmation window, type `delete` in the field provided, then click **Confirm**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

The selected Clients — and all their recorded sessions — are removed from the Application Server and disappear from the Management Tool.
