I installed the KP plugin for ArcDPS and started getting a lot of crashes. How do I uninstall it? It's not in the Nexus menu, the ArcDPS menu has no uninstall option, and the files that reference it are a lot so I assume there's a better way than manually deleting it from everything?

Nope, you have to manually delete it

#

In the arc about tab you can see the file path

Just the .dll? It's referenced in a few other files, too. Is it safe to leave those as-is?
Ah, it was just an index of plugin names and descriptions, and a lookup file. Thanks!

I'll try to see if it's maybe feasible to uninstall arc plugins through Nexus, it should be possible

Would be cool, but I don't know if you have a convenient way of reading what files they add/touch. This one added its own JSON file in the general Arc folder, plus the .dll in the /addons folder. If all of them only added a .dll it would be a lot easier.

Yea, these leftovers will unfortunately stay

#

doesn't help that they add it in the arc folder instead of their own SadgeFlower

I guess you can offer to delete the .dll and leave a tooltip saying "Removes the core file, auxilary files might remain. These should be harmless, but you can go clean them. Find paths in ArcDPS/Options/About." Or something along those lines.

yea, for nexus I'm adding an uninstall routine, exactly to tackle this issue entirely

#

in a perfect world these would just be nexus addons instead of arc

Maybe some day, if enough people switch and there's more volunteers to port/add plugins.

#

Gonna be hopping off, thanks a ton for the assistance and the awesome tools you're providing ❤️
