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

 

1. First up bring up Plug-in Manager

Plug-in ManagerPlug-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

Plug-in Manager, a Plug-in disabledPlug-in Manager, a Plug-in disabled

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

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.

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
