# Remove license from the AnyDesk client

You can remove a device from your license, if you want to replace an existing device or add a different device to your license. Once removed, the AnyDesk client and the device will be unlinked from the user account and assigned to the free version of AnyDesk.

There are two ways of removing the license from your device. In this article, we provide more information on how to remove devices from your AnyDesk license [via the AnyDesk client](/v1/docs/remove-devices-from-your-license#remove-license-from-devices-via-the-anydesk-client) and the [my.anydesk management portal](/v1/docs/remove-devices-from-your-license#remove-license-from-devices-via-myanydesk).

> [!TIP]
> 💡 **NOTE**
> 
> Basic AnyDesk functionalities will remain, such as the ability to create or accept AnyDesk connection requests.
