A protection plan can be removed by clicking its Delete Plan action.


After clicking Delete Plan, you will be asked to confirm the action. From the confirmation dialog box, you can choose to delete the associated configuration file (this is checked by default) and the associated archive (this is not checked by default).


If you do not delete the associated archive, you can still restore data by clicking the Restore action of the archive under its parent store in the Stores folder. If you delete the associated archive, it will be moved to the Recycle Bin of the store with a timestamp added to its name indicating when it was deleted. The archive remains in the recycle bin until deleted by the Delete action or the store purge task. While the deleted archive is in the recycle bin, you can open it and restore individual point-in-time catalogs back to the archive by clicking the Restore action. After a point-in-time catalog is restored from the recycle bin, it can be explored and its contents restored as if it had never been deleted.


See Store Expiration and Store Purge for more information.
