Hi, I used before Luminar Flex in my Lightroom. Now I want removed the plugins. Iwas just doing that from Preferenser/External Editing BUT Flex is still in my Modules (photo below). Can I just removed those files?

Correct answer GoldingD

So, if I wanted to get rid entirely a plug-in

 

1. First up bring up Plug-in Manager

 

Scroll down to the Plug-in desired (Flickr in my example, I do not use it, only had it for a test)

 

And click on that Disable Button

 

Resulting in

Then, I could look at the path indicated, or select to show in Finder

 

And then drag that file to the trash.

 

After I restart LrC, then it will be gone

I used the technique you recommended and was successful in removing the plugins from plugin manager.  However, they still appear in the develop module in the Edit-In... drop down menu.  How can I remove the from that menu?

Thanks

    I have a similar situation as does one of the other guys in this thread.

    I have two plugins showing in "Photo/Edit In", but they are not in the Manage Plugins screen for me to disable.

    How do I remove them from the Edit In menu?

    Thanks.

    Hi,

     

    You have to physically remove the files of the plugin. Locate where they are in your system ( depending on Windows or MacOs) and either use a de-installer or manually remove the files. Then, it is gone. 

    Hope this will help.

      Thank you! I find with Finder where they are but have some more, last question. I use Skylum4 as plugin in Lightroom. If I remove Flex that will be not same problem with the other plugin?
