In addition to being able to easily edit your policies, there may also be times when you may want to remove one. 

Since policies are assigned to Customers and their assets, you can remove policies in the Customer tab/module. 

IMPORTANT: When you remove a policy:

  • Any assets assigned to it (either directly or through policy inheritance) automatically change their settings to match. 
  • Please ensure that any applications installed on the asset via the policy are also removed (e.g., managed antivirus applications, or remote applications like Splashtop).

To remove an existing policy, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Customers tab/module. The Customers table displays your existing customers.
  2. Click the hyperlinked name of the Customer, then select the Assets & Policies subtab:

  3. Click the desired folder (or asset) from which you want to remove the policy to highlight it.
  4. Click Update Assigned Policy.
  5. In the Assign Policy pop-up window, click Remove Policy: 

    The Policy column in the Assets & Policies subtab updates to show that the policy has been removed.
  6. Click Save Changes. Your policy changes are now in effect.

Alternatively, you could navigate to the Policies page, and click Remove in the row for the policy you'd like to remove:

If a policy is associated with at least one policy folder, Syncro generates a modal warning to let you know:

If you choose to proceed and remove a policy that's associated with a folder/asset, the folder/asset will lose its assignment and inherit from the remaining effective policy. See About Policy Inheritance for more information.
