While you're at Notre Dame, a variety of licensed software is made available to you for academic/employee use. Now that you are retiring from Notre Dame, you need to remove such software from your own computer. Since these programs are licensed only for use by members of the Notre Dame community, you will no longer be eligible to have these programs installed on your computer after you leave. You DO NOT need to uninstall any software which was pre-installed on your personally-owned computer or which you purchased through the Hammes Hub.
