Ian Branch 122 Posted July 9 Hi Team, D12.1 A 3rd Party IDE plug in on GitHub pricked my interest. I downloaded, built and installed it. As it turns out, it isn't of any use to me. I can't find any mechanism to remove it. I could delete the .bpl. but will probably end up with error messages when i start the IDE. I found an entry in the Registry but: a. I am unsure if it is the right/only one to delete. b. I am leary of doing so on spec as I have been bitten a couple of times previously playing in the registry. What is the best/safest method to remove it please? Regards & TIA, Ian Share this post Link to post
Anders Melander 1705 Posted July 9 A bit more specifics would have been helpful. E.g. a link to the repository, how did you "install" it, etc. Anyway, if it's actually an IDE plugin it's listed in (for Delphi 12): HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Embarcadero\BDS\23.0\Known IDE Packages If it's a component package it's listed in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Embarcadero\BDS\23.0\Known Packages You can just delete it from there. Save a copy of the registry tree (right click the parent node, select export) if you are unsure of what you're doing. 1 Share this post Link to post
Ian Branch 122 Posted July 9 Tks Anders, It wasn't under 'Known IDE Packages', it was under 'Known Packages'. All good now Tks. Regards, Ian Share this post Link to post
Remy Lebeau 1330 Posted July 10 In which case, you could have just removed it from within the IDE itself, via the "Component" menu, "Install Packages" dialog. Share this post Link to post
Ian Branch 122 Posted July 10 Hi Remy, Agreed, but, it didn't appear there, or I would have. Regards, Ian Share this post Link to post
