DESCRIPTION

The `Unregister-PackageSource` cmdlet removes a registered package source. Package sources are always managed by a package provider. To find package sources, use the `Get-PackageSource` cmdlet.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Unregister a package source for the Nuget provider

PS> Unregister-PackageSource -Source MyNuGet

The `Unregister-PackageSource` cmdlet uses the Source parameter to specify which source to remove.

Example 2: Use a PackageSource object to unregister a package

PS> $pkgsource = Get-PackageSource -Name MyNuGet
PS> Unregister-PackageSource -InputObject $pkgsource

The `$pkgsource` variable stores the PackageSource created by the `Get-PackageSource` cmdlet. `Unregister-PackageSource` uses the `$pkgsource` as input to the InputObject parameter.

As an alternative, the `Unregister-PackageSource` cmdlet can specify a value for the InputObject parameter:

`Unregister-PackageSource -InputObject ( Get-PackageSource -Name MyNuGet )`

PARAMETERS

-ConfigFile

Specifies a configuration file.

Type: System.String
Parameter Sets: NuGet:SourceByInputObject, NuGet:SourceBySearch
Aliases:

Required: False

-Credential

Specifies a user account that has permission to access the computer and run commands. Type a user name, such as User01 , Domain01\User01 , or enter a PSCredential object, generated by the `Get-Credential` cmdlet. If you type a user name, you're prompted for a password.

When the Credential parameter isn't specified, the current user account is used.

Aliases:

Required: False
