**Uninstalling FrontPage Extensions**

**Overview**
If you no longer need to use FrontPage Extensions to publish your website, you can remove them via the FrontPage Extensions menu in cPanel on your gptservers.net hosting account.

**Warning**: Uninstalling (or installing) FrontPage Extensions will delete all `.htaccess` files for your site, erasing any custom modifications made to them.

**Steps**
1. Access FrontPage Extensions by clicking the “FrontPage Extensions” icon on the main cPanel interface.
2. Select the “Uninstall Extensions” option to remove the extensions.

**Note**: After uninstalling, you’ll see a message similar to the following (with the date reflecting when the extensions were originally installed and the version number possibly differing):

*Attempting to remove FrontPage Extensions...*
*Starting uninstall, port: 80.*
*Created: 00 Jan 0000 11:11:11 -0000*
*Version: 5.0.2.2634*
*Port 80: Uninstall completed.*
*Removing .htaccess files....Done*
*Removing old FrontPage files...Done*
*FrontPage Extensions are currently: not installed*

**Troubleshooting**
The options displayed in cPanel will vary depending on whether FrontPage Extensions are currently installed. Check the status in the FrontPage Extensions section to confirm if they are active on your account.
