    ### Remove all inactive builders (--all-inactive) {#all-inactive}

    Remove builders that are not in running state.

    ```console
    $ docker buildx rm --all-inactive
    WARNING! This will remove all builders that are not in running state. Are you sure you want to continue? [y/N] y
    ```

    ### Override the configured builder instance (--builder) {#builder}

    Same as [`buildx --builder`](/reference/cli/docker/buildx/#builder).

    ### Do not prompt for confirmation (--force) {#force}

    Do not prompt for confirmation before removing inactive builders.

    ```console
    $ docker buildx rm --all-inactive --force
    ```

    ### Keep the BuildKit daemon running (--keep-daemon) {#keep-daemon}

    Keep the BuildKit daemon running after the buildx context is removed. This is
    useful when you manage BuildKit daemons and buildx contexts independently.
    Only supported by the
    [`docker-container`](/build/drivers/docker-container/)
    and [`kubernetes`](/build/drivers/kubernetes/) drivers.

    ### Keep BuildKit state (--keep-state) {#keep-state}

    Keep BuildKit state, so it can be reused by a new builder with the same name.
    Currently, only supported by the [`docker-container` driver](/build/drivers/docker-container/).
