+## Uninstall
+
+To manually remove RUM from your auto-instrumented web server:
+
+1. Locate the Apache (`httpd`) configuration file by running `httpd -V`. Depending on the Linux distribution used, this binary file could be named `http`, `apachectl`, `apache2` or `apache2ctl`. The following steps use `httpd` as an example. In this instance, the file location could be: `/usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf`.
+2. At the end of the httpd configuration file, remove the line: `Include /opt/datadog-httpd/datadog.conf`.
+3. Delete the directory `/opt/datadog-httpd/` and all of its contents.
+4. Restart or reload Apache httpd.

+## Uninstall
+
+To manually remove RUM from your auto-instrumented web server:
+
+1. Locate the NGINX configuration file by running `nginx -T`. For example: `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf`.
+2. At the beginning of the file, remove the line: `load_module /opt/datadog-nginx/ngx_http_datadog_module.so;`.
+3. In the file, remove all existing `datadog_*` sections from within the `http` directive. The sections look similar to the following, depending on your system configuration:
+
+   ```
+   datadog_agent_url http://datadog-agent:8126;
+   datadog_tracing off;
+   datadog_rum on;
+   datadog_rum_config {
+     # ... specific RUM configuration
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. Delete the directory `/opt/datadog-nginx/` and all of its contents.
+5. Restart or reload your NGINX web server.
