Hopefully, you’ll be able to remove large chunks without the vinyl breaking.
To remove the top layer, find a corner and separate the top layer from the paper underneath. Lay down a drop cloth or poly sheet to prevent wet wallpaper from ruining your floors, and tape over floorboards and wainscoting so you don't damage them during this process. Remove wall plates from light switches and outlets and tape over the outlet and switches to prevent water and moisture from getting on them. Yes, this means you’ll have two layers to remove with non peel-and-stick wallpapers. Wallpapers typically have two layers: the paper that sticks to the wall and then a vinyl or another water-resistant layer with the actual pattern. The main kinds of wallpaper with adhesive are pre-pasted (paste is already on the back) and non-pasted (paste has to be applied before sticking to the wall). However, other types of wallpaper stick to the wall with an adhesive and take more time to remove. You can probably remove a whole wall with peel-and-stick wallpaper in ten minutes. This one comes off easily in one layer and does not usually leave any marks on the wall. If you’re lucky, it’ll be peel-and-stick wallpaper. You can do this by picking at a small corner and trying to remove it. The first thing you’ll want to do is determine which kind of wallpaper you have. It's a messy and time-consuming job, but with the right tools, anyone can do it. There's no shortcut for removing wallpaper. In general, the amount of time it takes to remove wallpaper will depend on the type of wall and the kind of wallpaper you have. 
What’s tricky about removing wallpaper is that it’s hard to gauge how long it’ll take until you actually start.
Or you recently moved into a new home, and you have some cute wallpaper in what used to be a toddler’s room, but it doesn’t make sense in your new office. Maybe a few years ago your family was in love with a forest-printed accent wall, and now it looks tacky.
