Installing a new kit without uninstalling the old kit is not recommended. If not done properly you may end up using the styles of the old kit in your new kit and with a lot of extraneous pages, which can cause confusion later on. Manually uninstalling the old kit is both time-consuming and prone to errors, while <a href=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/restoring-a-previous-version-cloud\/\">restoring your website<\/a> means essentially restarting your site from a certain point.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The website kit removal tool is an efficient, effective alternative to all the above. It allows you to remove your old kit before you install a new one. This means your new kit will install cleanly, just as intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"callout-red\">Note: The kit removal tool will only be available to those upgraded to Elementor Pro 3.8 (or later) before installing the kit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Removing a kit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Navigate to <strong>Elementor&gt;Tools<\/strong> on the WordPress dashboard.<\/li>\n\n<br><figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"155\" height=\"244\" src=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-4.png\" alt=\"The Elementor Tools section of the dashboard\" class=\"wp-image-32930\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Go to Elementor&gt;Tools.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br>\n\n<li>Click the <strong>Import\/Export<\/strong> tab.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Remove Kit.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"866\" height=\"676\" src=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5.png\" alt=\"The Template options menu\" class=\"wp-image-32931\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5.png 866w, https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-300x234.png 300w, https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-768x600.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 866px) 100vw, 866px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Select the Remove Kit option.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"callout-red\">Note: Removing a kit will remove any content you added to the kit.
