          [-SourceIdentifier] <String>

          [-Confirm]
          [<CommonParameters>]
Unregister-Event
          [-SubscriptionId] <Int32>

Description

The Unregister-Event cmdlet cancels an event subscription that was created by using the Register-EngineEvent, Register-ObjectEvent, or Register-WmiEvent cmdlet.

When an event subscription is canceled, the event subscriber is deleted from the session and the subscribed events are no longer added to the event queue. When you cancel a subscription to an event created by using the New-Event cmdlet, the new event is also deleted from the session.

Unregister-Event does not delete events from the event queue. To delete events, use the Remove-Event cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Cancel an event subscription by source identifier

This command cancels the event subscription that has a source identifier of ProcessStarted.

Unregister-Event -SourceIdentifier "ProcessStarted"

To find the source identifier of an event, use the Get-Event cmdlet. To find the source identifier of an event subscription, use the Get-EventSubscriber cmdlet

Example 2: Cancel an event subscription by subscription identifier

This command cancels the event subscription that has a subscription identifier of 2.

Unregister-Event -SubscriptionId 2

To find the subscription identifier of an event subscription, use the Get-EventSubscriber cmdlet.

Example 3: Cancel all event subscriptions

This example cancels all event subscriptions in the session.

Get-EventSubscriber -Force | Unregister-Event -Force

Using the Force parameter with Get-EventSubscriber gets all event subscriber objects in the session, including the subscribers that are hidden. The output is piped to Unregister-Event, which deletes the subscribers from the session. The Force parameter is required on Unregister-Event to remove any hidden subscribers.

Outputs

None

This cmdlet returns no output.

Notes

No event sources available on the Linux or macOS platforms.

Events, event subscriptions, and the event queue exist only in the current session. If you close the current session, the event queue is discarded and the event subscription is canceled.

Unregister-Event cannot delete events created by using the New-Event cmdlet unless you have subscribed to the event by using the Register-EngineEvent cmdlet. To delete a custom event from the session, you must remove it programmatically or close the session.
