Mods & Plugins

Dec 21, 2024

You may need to uninstall plugins if you find they are causing errors or crashes, conflict with other plugins you have installed, or don't function in the way that you expected.

Luckily, removing plugins only requires stopping the server, deleting the plugin files, and starting your server again.

Uninstalling Plugins

Manually uninstalling plugins is as simple as stopping your server, navigating to your plugins folder, and deleting plugin jar file you no longer want. You can save plugin data by not deleting the plugin's folder. However, if you would like to fully remove the plugin and its data, you will need to delete its folder along with the jar file.

If you installed your plugin from the Shockbyte Panel Plugins page, you can uninstall them there as well.

Step 1:

Open your server's control panel and Stop your server.

Step 2:

Open the Files tab by clicking it

Step 3:

Select the plugins folder to open it

Step 4:

Select the plugin file(s) you want to remove, then click delete

To delete a plugin, you will need to delete the plugin's jar file. If you would like to remove the plugin's data too, delete its plugin folder as well.

Step 5:

Start or restart your server if it is already running

That's it! After the server boots up, the plugin will be removed from your server.
