Delete a unit in Configuration Management

You can delete a unit either by right-clicking it and selecting Delete, or by selecting File → Delete unit… in Configuration Management. Deleting a unit ends its lifecycle in CapaInstaller, and it affects the items related to the unit. The Delete Unit window helps you find the unit and delete it.
