Removing Event Receiver from SharePoint list

Introduction

As we know about event receiver in SharePoint. I am going to share a powershell script which is used to remove an associated Event Receiver

Script 

function RemovingEventReceiver($siteURL ,$listName, $eName)

{

$spweb= Get-SPWeb $siteURL

$list = $spweb.Lists[$listName]

 $noe = $list.EventReceivers.Count

  if ($noe -gt 0)

{

   for( $index = $noe -1; $index -gt -1; $index–-)

   {

      $receiver = $list.EventReceivers[$index] ;

      $name = $receiver.Name

      $typ = $receiver.Type ;

 

      if ($name -eq $eName)  

      {

         $receiver.Delete()

         Write-Host "Event receiver " $name " is deleted from " $listName -ForegroundColor Green

      }

   }

}

}

$web = Read-Host "Enter site URL : "

RemovingEventReceiver $web "YourListName" "EventReceiverName"
