iMac; Mojave. I am using Photoshop CS6. First time posting this particular question but I have been trying to solve it for a long time, without success.

When I install new software that functions as a plugin for Photoshop CS6 I can usually see it fine in the Filters dropdown menu. My question is, how do I remove these plugins from my hard drive, where are they? More importantly how do I remove these items from the Filters dropdown? I can't seem to find where this list resides.

Thank you in advance.

Two places to look for third party plugins are

/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Plug-ins

Hard Drive/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS6

on macs the plugin/filter extension is .plugin not .8bf which is windows.

Most of the time you can just drag the plugins to the trash to remove them from cs6, although a few do have unistallers, so if you not sure go to the plugin makers website and check how to remove their plugins.
