Use this command to delete duplicate instances of components that are displayed on the Administration > Components tab. You can also use this command to delete instances of components that are uninstalled or removed from the deployment.
For example, if you perform a custom installation of the Collection Station on a computer and then you uninstall it and later reinstall it on the same computer, the Administration > Components page displays a duplicate entry for the Collection Station with the status green. In this scenario, you can run this command to delete the duplicate entry of the Collection Station.
