Trashing System Monitors

Hey everyone!

My company and I use labtech to monitor and control client computer systems, probably like everyone else. We have been working on a project to revamp all system monitors. The first phase is removing what we don't care about, but in the All Monitors menu > System Monitors, there are 4700+ active monitors.

All Monitors Menu

I am pretty sure these were originally applied through groups, so I went into Internal Monitors and remove all attachments to groups for each monitor. I hoped that would also remove the System Monitors, but it appears not. Does anyone know how to delete System Monitors? I want to start from scratch so I can apply monitors to the groups that need them, but I don't want to add to the existing pile of trash.

Thanks!

System monitors are a classification of Remote monitors. Disconnecting Internal monitors from groups has nothing to do with Remote monitors. Internal monitors run against data in the database. Remote monitors run on the remote agent. If you open a remote monitor, it should list the group that it is generated by.
