Uninstallation

Introduction

The uninstallation process of the Shopify AppSections application requires careful attention to ensure a clean and complete removal of the app and its components. We highly recommend performing a Clean Uninstall to restore your theme to its original state and avoid any potential issues.

Importance of Clean Uninstall

Performing a Clean Uninstall is crucial for several reasons:

  4. Inoperability Without the App:

    • After uninstalling the application, any sections, templates, or brand styles added through AppSections will no longer work. A Clean Uninstall ensures that these elements are properly removed, making your theme functional without the app.

  5. Loss of Modifications:

    • All modifications made to sections, templates, and brand styles will be lost. This includes any customizations or changes you have implemented while using the AppSections application.
