I am having problems with the History Provider I am creating. When I go into the Ignition Designer and assign my newly created History Provider to a few tags and click apply, it works out fine. The problem is after that when I go back to those tags and try to un-assign the History Provider by using the History Tab, selecting No, and then apply my program still recognizes that the tag still has assigned my History Provider. I have tried to restart my module and also restart the Ignition Gateway Control Utility.

The only work-around I have figured is to create a new History Provider of some type and then I must assign the tag for that new Provider instead.
