Removing LineView IM from this PC #
You can uninstall LineView IM like any other Windows program. It only takes a minute, and you can install it again later from LineViewIM.com.
1. Close LineView
If the board is open, close it. If you've turned on Minimize to notification area, LineView keeps running next to the clock after you close the board. In that case, right-click its icon next to the clock (it may be behind the up arrow) and choose Quit LineView.
2. Open the list of installed apps
- Windows 11: right-click the Start button, choose Installed apps.
- Windows 10: right-click the Start button, choose Apps and Features.
3. Uninstall it
- Windows 11: find LineView IM in the list (type its name in the search box if the list is long), click the three dots at the right of its row, then click Uninstall and confirm.
- Windows 10: click LineView IM in the list, then click Uninstall and confirm.
Follow the prompts in the uninstaller. When it finishes, LineView's Desktop and Start menu shortcuts are gone.
A quicker way: click Start, right-click LineView IM in the list of apps, and choose Uninstall. Windows opens the same list.
What uninstalling does and doesn't do
- It removes the program from this PC. It does not delete your Cool Telecom account, your office's messages, or anyone else's LineView.
- It normally leaves this PC's saved settings and sign-in behind. If you reinstall later, you may find yourself signed in again.
- It doesn't sign this PC out on your office's side. If the PC is being retired or given to someone else, ask your LineView admin to sign it out first (see Signing out, and signing back in).
If you can't find it, or it won't uninstall
Make sure LineView is closed (step 1), then try again. If it still won't go, contact Cool Telecom and tell us what you see.
