Delete a protection plan

Before you delete a protection plan, you need to add the assets to another protection plan.

You cannot delete a protection plan unless all assets have been removed from the protection plan.

To delete a protection plan

  1. Make note of the protection plan you want to add the assets to (new or existing).

  2. Locate the assets that currently protected by the plan you want to delete.
  3. Subscribe the assets to the new or an existing protection plan.

  4. Unsubscribe the assets from the protection plan you want to delete.
  5. On the left, click Protection plans.
  6. Select the protection plan you want to delete.
  7. Click Delete on the top right of the screen.
