 ## Backing up and Restoring the Database
 
 ## Removing Notmuch
+
+Did not like it after all? All you need to do is remove the database and the
+configuration file. The database is stored in the `.notmuch` directory under
+your mail store. And your mail store is at `notmuch config get database.path`.
+
+Note that the database is where the tags are stored. Everything else can be
+regenerated by indexing again, but the tags will be lost when the database is
+removed. Use the `notmuch dump` command to create a backup of the tags.
