How do I uninstall the Vulnerability and Patch management pack from Insight Manager. I already have patchlink to deploy patches.

You can uninstall it on Add or Remove Programs on Windows Control Panel.

Your Insight Manager will still working.

It is not listed - I have HP systems Insight Manager (remove Only) and HP protect your data on the list

If it's not listed, it's not installed.

Anyway, please check if it's listed on HP SIM about page.

Is there any VPM menu on HP SIM?

I think this automatically installs with Insight but I am not sure. I have never been able to figure out how to uninstall it either, so I just hide the column on my Sims page.

VPM is not released with HP SIM.

VPM can be installed on HP SIM Server or installed on other server (and it uses a remote HP SIM Server).

If VPM wasn't installed on HP SIM server it will be listed on Add or Remove Programs of VPM Server.

If you're sure that VPM was installed on HP SIM server, you can search for the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\HP Vulnerability And Patch Management_is1\UninstallString

This key stores the uninstallation command to remove VPM. You just need to execute it.
