 ### Uninstall script
 
-An uninstall script will run when an admin chooses to uninstall the software from the host on the host details page, or if an install fails for hosts running `fleetd` 1.33.0 or later. Like the install script, a default uninstall script will be pre-filled after selecting a file. This script can be edited if the software package requires a custom uninstallation process.
+An uninstall script will run when an admin chooses to uninstall the software from the host on the host details page, or if the post-install script (if supplied) fails for hosts running `fleetd` 1.33.0 or later. Like the install script, a default uninstall script will be pre-filled after selecting a file. This script can be edited if the software package requires a custom uninstallation process.
 
 In addition to the `$INSTALLER_PATH` environment variable supported by install scripts, you can use `$PACKAGE_ID` in uninstall scripts as a placeholder for the package IDs (for .pkg files), package name (for Linux installers), product code (for MSIs), or software name (for EXE installers). The Fleet server will substitute `$PACKAGE_ID` on upload.
