# Remove extensions

* Open the administration of your shop
* Switch via the main navigation to the "**Extension Management**" (1) (2) ("Extensions"=> "My extensions")
* Click the ![](../../../../.gitbook/assets/config--btn-context-small.png) **Context-Button** (3) next to the theme in order to open the context menu and click "**Remove**" (4)
* Log in to the **Shopware Account** within the tab "**Shopware Account**" with your account update your data so that the deletion of the extension is updated in the entire system.

The extension has now been removed.

**Note**: If the extension cannot be deleted, it can in most cases be deleted directly via FTP and from the database.

### Remove license

Extensions with valid licenses will be displayed in the Extension Management even after "removing" them, because the corresponding account still owns this license. You can remove/archiv the license itself in your Shopware Account:

* Go to your Shopware Account at [https://account.shopware.com](https://account.shopware.com) and cancel the rental there. Without this cancellation, the rental contract will continue to be charged.
