Uninstalling the FPGA Board

To uninstall an FPGA board for Windows, invoke the

uninstall

utility command, uninstall the

Custom Platform, and unset the relevant environment variables. You must uninstall the existing FPGA

board if you migrate your OpenCL application to another FPGA board from a different Custom Platform.
To uninstall your FPGA board, perform the following tasks:
1. Following your board vendor's instructions to disconnect the board from your machine.

2. Invoke the

aocl uninstall

utility command to remove the current host computer drivers (for

example, PCI Express (PCIe) drivers). The RTE uses these drivers to communicate with the FPGA

board.

3. Uninstall the Custom Platform.

4. Unset the PATH environment variable.

5. Unset the AOCL_BOARD_PACKAGE_ROOT environment variable.
