### Removing Policy

This example shows how to remove a policy using the policy ID.

```
$PolicyToRemove = Get-VBRDiscoveredComputerConfigurationPolicy -Id a78eceb5-d5b8-4fe0-9a8c-cc788a123c4a
Remove-VBRDiscoveredComputerConfigurationPolicy -Policy $PolicyToRemove
```

Perform the following steps:

2. Run the `Remove-VBRDiscoveredComputerConfigurationPolicy` cmdlet. Set the `$PolicyToRemove` variable as the `Policy` parameter value.
