Uninstall
- Navigate to AdminCP > Add-ons and click Uninstall next to [MC] Downloads Manager.
- Confirm the uninstall when prompted.
The uninstall steps drop the add-on's tables, remove uploaded files from internal_data/mc-downloads/ (or from the remapped storage backend if you reconfigured the internal-data adapter), delete the route filter, and remove the add-on's options, permissions, phrases, and templates.
What is not removed
- Linked discussion threads belong to the standard forum tables and stay in place. If you want to act on them first, set the When a download is deleted option appropriately before uninstalling.
- Bookmarks (
xf_bookmark_item) and reactions (xf_reaction_content) that point at downloads, versions, comments, or reviews remain as orphaned rows. They cause no damage; a DBA can delete rows whose content type starts withmc_dm_to clean up.
Before you uninstall
If you want to keep the stored files for archival, copy them out of internal_data/mc-downloads/ (or your remote storage backend) before uninstalling. The uninstaller deletes them in place.
