    Hello @Hayden, Jeff

    I understand that you would like to know how to remove the Network Watcher agent extension from your Linux VM.

    You can uninstall it using Azure portal/PowerShell/CLI following the below doc:

    https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/extensions/features-linux?tabs=azure-cli#rerun-a-vm-extension

    To remove an extension in the Azure portal:

    1. Select a VM.
    2. Select Extensions.
    3. Select the extension.
    4. Select Uninstall.

    To remove an extension via Azure PowerShell, use Remove-AzVMExtension command. (To force the command to run without asking for user confirmation specify the -Force switch parameter.)

    To remove an extension via Azure CLI, use az vm extension delete command.

    Kindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
