| ## NAME
 | |
| podman\-machine\-rm - Remove a virtual machine
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## SYNOPSIS
 | |
| **podman machine rm** [*options*] [*name*]
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| Remove a virtual machine and its related files.  What is actually deleted
 | |
| depends on the virtual machine type.  For all virtual machines, the generated
 | |
| SSH keys and the podman system connection are deleted.  The ignition files
 | |
| generated for that VM are also removed as is its image file on the filesystem.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Users get a display of what is deleted and are required to confirm unless the option `--force`
 | |
| is used.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The default machine name is `podman-machine-default`. If a machine name is not specified as an argument,
 | |
| then `podman-machine-default` will be removed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Rootless only.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## OPTIONS
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### **--force**, **-f**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Stop and delete without confirmation.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### **--help**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Print usage statement.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### **--save-ignition**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Do not delete the generated ignition file.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### **--save-image**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Do not delete the VM image.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### **--save-keys**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Do not delete the SSH keys for the VM.  The system connection is always
 | |
| deleted.
 | |
|
