 # .NET Core additional tools overview
 
 This section compiles a list of tools that support and extend the .NET Core functionality, in addition to the [.NET Core command-line interface (CLI)](../tools/index.md) tools.
 
+## [.NET Core Uninstall Tool](uninstall-tool.md)
+
+The [.NET Core Uninstall Tool](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/uninstall-tool) (`dotnet-core-uninstall`) lets you clean-up .NET Core SDKs and Runtimes on a system such that only the specified versions remain. A collection of options is available to specify which versions are uninstalled.

 ## [WCF Web Service Reference tool](wcf-web-service-reference-guide.md)
 
 The WCF (Windows Communication Foundation) Web Service Reference is a Visual Studio connected service provider that made its debut in [Visual Studio 2017 version 15.5](/visualstudio/releasenotes/vs2017-relnotes-v15.5#WCFTools). This tool retrieves metadata from a web service in the current solution, on a network location, or from a WSDL file, and generates a source file compatible with .NET Core, defining a WCF proxy class with methods that you can use to access the web service operations.
