+# Removing the panda-webcontrol package
+
+Removing packages follows the same two methods as installing
+packages - Through the web interface or through the shell on the panda: [](packages.md).
+
+If you are trying to remove the panda-webcontrol package, it might be best to use SSH to remove it, but both methods are provided for convenience:
+
+## Removing the panda-webcontrol package through the webcontrol
+
+:::{warning}
+Ensure your ssh keys are already on the panda before proceeding, as you will
+lose access to the web interface for control. Follow [*How do I authorise a public SSH key?*](/reference/troubleshooting.md)
+:::
+
+1. Insert a USB stick into the PandA.
+2. Open the web admin interface at `http://<panda-hostname>/admin/`.
+3. Navigate to **Packages → List Installed Packages**.
+4. Select the **panda-webcontrol** package.
+5. Click on **delete selected packages** .
+
+## Removing the panda-webcontrol package through ssh 
+1. ssh into the PandA using
+    ```bash
+    ssh root@<panda-hostname>
+    ```
+2. Remove the webcontrol package using the opkg tool
+    ```bash
+    opkg remove panda-webcontrol
+    ```
+
+Following either method will remove the webcontrol package from your PandA.
