# Unassign a Certificate from a Profile

You can use these steps to unassign or remove an external certificate that's attached to a connection profile:

1. Launch OpenVPN Connect.
2. Click or tap the **Edit** icon for the appropriate connection profile.
   - The **Edit Profile** screen displays.
3. Click or tap **Unassign**.

   > **Note**
   >
   > If you don't have the option to unassign a certificate, the connection profile you're editing doesn't use an external certificate.

   - The certificate is removed.
4. Click or tap **Save**.
