								If you have a searx installation on your sever and want to switch to SearXNG,
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								you need to uninstall searx first.  If you have an old searx docker installation
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								replace your docker image / see :ref:`installation docker`.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								If your searx instance was installed *"Step by step"* or by the *"Installation
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								scripts"*, you need to undo the installation procedure completely.  If you have
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								morty & filtron installed, it is recommended to uninstall these services also.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								In case of scripts, to uninstall use the scripts from the origin you installed
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								searx from.

							 | 
							
							
								
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								If you have removed the old searx installation, clone from SearXNG and and start
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								with your installation procedure (e.g. :ref:`installation scripts`):
