Remove Workflow Manager scopes?

Question

Is there any way to remove additional scope that get's created when you create a connection to multiple SharePoint Farms from a Workflow Manager service server?

Register-SPWorkflowService -SPSite https://farmb.corp.local 
-WorkflowHostUri https://wffarm.corp.local:12290 -ScopeName FarmB

I found and tried Remove-WFScope but the scopes remain even after. IIS-resets/server reboots make's no difference.

You need to run the remove powershell command with path of scope. you have to provide full path.

also run the below powershell to check all the available scope

param([parameter(mandatory=$true)][string]$Endpoint, [string]$Path = "/", [string]$Parent = "None")

[Reflection.Assembly]::Load("Microsoft.Workflow.Client, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35") | Out-Null
Write-Output ""

function WriteScopeInfo([string]$scopeUri, [string]$path, [string]$parent) {
    $scopePath = $scopeUri + $path
    $client = New-Object -TypeName "Microsoft.Workflow.Client.WorkflowManagementClient" -ArgumentList $scopePath
    $manager = $client.CurrentScope
    $scope = $manager.Get()

    Write-Output "Name: `t`t`t$($scope.DisplayName)"
    Write-Output "Path: `t`t`t$($scope.Path)"
    Write-Output "Status: `t`t$($scope.Status.ToString())"
    Write-Output "User Comments: `t$($scope.UserComments)"
    Write-Output "Parent: `t`t$parent"
    Write-Output "Children: `t`t$($scope.ChildScopeCount)"
    Write-Output ""

    if ($scope.ChildScopeCount -gt 0) {
        $manager.GetChildScopes() | % { WriteScopeInfo $scopeUri $_.Path $scope.Path }
    }
}

WriteScopeInfo $Endpoint $Path $Parent
