Before uninstalling the AMD Vivado™ Design Suite, make sure to move any project files you want to keep to a location outside the tool's installation directory. This prevents accidental deletion of your files during the uninstallation process.

The uninstaller does not remove the AMD Information Center and Documentation Navigator. AMD designed both as standalone applications for use with multiple versions of AMD tools.

Uninstall the applications separately if you no longer need them. You can uninstall through the corresponding entry in the Start Menu program group. For Windows, use the "Uninstall or change a program" control panel option.

In Linux, Uninstalling the AMD Vivado™ Design Suite tool does not need any root privileges if you have access to that path and there are no instances of the tool open from that installation.

In Windows, you require Administrator privilege if you plan to uninstall using the command line options. Uninstalling using XIC does not require any admin privilege.
