![Grid Options - Search and Filter Group Names](https://3007061244-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MRkQfx_2cLnNNBX1muO%2F-MUPQ8Zu4sFxwMrmI8lM%2F-MUPSNs6J6bXydgddBI-%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=f8a12c6f-45b1-4fb0-8b8f-ebd33e5e86a8)

The steps for this are similar to  [Uninstall an Application From a Group of Computers](https://docs.faronics.com/faronicsdeploy/application-management/install-uninstall-and-update-apps/uninstall-application-s/uninstall-an-application-on-a-group-of-computers), the only difference being it is scheduled for a later time (not uninstalled instantly) using the **OPTIONS** feature to set the Schedule.&#x20;
