function Remove-DbaXESession {
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Removes Extended Events sessions.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        This script removes Extended Events sessions on a SQL Server instance.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlInstance
        The target SQL Server instance or instances. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2008 or higher.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlCredential
        Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential).
 
        Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported.
 
        For MFA support, please use Connect-DbaInstance.
 
    .PARAMETER Session
        Specifies a list of Extended Events sessions to remove.
 
    .PARAMETER AllSessions
        If this switch is enabled, all Extended Events sessions will be removed except the packaged sessions AlwaysOn_health, system_health, telemetry_xevents.
 
    .PARAMETER InputObject
        Accepts a collection of XEsession objects as output by Get-DbaXESession.
 
    .PARAMETER WhatIf
        If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run.
 
    .PARAMETER Confirm
        If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state.
 
    .PARAMETER EnableException
        By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
        This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
        Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
