Uninstalling

Please be aware that uninstalling Pretendo Docker requires a some manual steps to be taken on the console.

danger

Take a backup of your server data now! Run ./scripts/backup.sh before-uninstall to back up all server data to backups/before-uninstall.

After backing up, copy the backups directory in this repo to somewhere safe so it is not deleted.

1. Go back to the connecting guide and follow the steps to connect to either the official Pretendo Network server or Nintendo's server.

   • You may now delete anything related to your self-hosted PNID from your consoles and emulators.

     warning

     If you do not delete your self-hosted PNID from your Wii U now, while connected to your local server, you will need to take manual steps if you decide to delete it later. Deleting a Wii U account normally requires server authentication, but this can be bypassed by using the Unlink the account.dat file option of the Wii U Account Swap tool and then deleting the account normally.

2. Run docker compose down to stop the containers.

3. Delete your copy of the pretendo-docker repository.

4. Run docker system prune -a to free up some storage by deleting the Pretendo Docker images and build cache.

danger

If you have safely stored your server data backup, you may now delete the Docker volumes that start with pretendo-network to free up some more storage.
