Downgrade Virtualmin Pro system to GPL version If you want to keep using Virtualmin on the same server but no longer need Virtualmin Pro features, use this command to downgrade to Virtualmin GPL instead of uninstalling Virtualmin. This is not a full uninstall. Your existing virtual servers and other GPL-supported services remain in place. The downgrade switches the system to GPL licensing and repositories, replaces the Pro package with the GPL package, removes Pro-only plugins, and locks reseller accounts.
