# Uninstalling automatic runtime installation

> Uninstall an automatic runtime installation of ABBYY FineReader Engine on Windows using installRnt64.exe with DeinstallRuntime=Yes and the original INSTALLDIR path.

Automatic runtime uninstallation is the same for standalone and network installations. For network installation, perform the required steps on every workstation.

If ABBYY FineReader Engine library was installed using a built-in installer (automatic runtime installation), it must be uninstalled also with the help of that installer. Run the installRnt64.exe file from the distribution package with the following options:

* /quiet (or /passive if you want a progress bar to be displayed)
* INSTALLDIR="\<destination path\&gt;"<br />The path to the folder where the ABBYY FineReader Engine library was installed.
* DeinstallRuntime=Yes<br />Indicates that the runtime installation must be removed.
