Aero Game Framework keeps re-installing itself?

Install Aero Framework plugin for following its own directions, then uninstall it through Plugins > Manage Plugins > Aero Game Framework > click the red X icon. The plugin appears to be uninstalled as desired.

However after re-starting Studio, the plugin is back and appears to be fully installed.

How to permanently uninstall this plugin?

You could try removing it directly from your filesystem. If you’re running with a Windows OS, go to the path %appdata%\..\Local\Roblox\InstalledPlugins and delete the folder named 1882232354. You can then hit uninstall if it appears in your plugin manager, though it shouldn’t after this. If this doesn’t resolve your issue, you might be experiencing a bug and the below is applicable.

Check and see if you’re able to reproduce this with other plugins, possibly one that you write yourself as well. If you’re able to reproduce the bug and gather information about it, make sure to create a report in #platform-feedback:studio-bugs.

If the bug is specific to Aero Game Framework after several tests you perform, consider filing an issue on AGF’s GitHub repository. I have strong doubts that it’s a problem with the plugin itself and rather the Studio uninstall procedure itself, but anything goes.

Helpful, thanks. But the interesting part is the unexpected difference found on my system.

Never mind \Roblox\InstalledPlugins

There was an extra folder created outside of \InstalledPlugins!

\Roblox\754413729

Delete this folder and the \InstalledPlugins\1882232354 folder, then uninstall the plugin using Manage Plugins button in Studio, that remove AGF plugin finally.

Does the Aero Game Framework plugin created this folder 754413729 when it is uninstalled from through the Plugin Manager?

Unexpected behaviour.

That’s interesting.
Did you take a look at the plugin’s source code?

About 15 minutes pattern matching and browsing. Not spending more time on it right now.

As the author of the plugin: No, it doesn’t do anything like that. I have no idea why this was happening, sorry.

That number is your UserId for Roblox, seems to be a studio issue. Maybe the cloud saving plugin system is at fault?

Hadn’t noticed! That could be the case.

Right?! And I’d be surprised to see a plugin run be able to run something that it calls on itself after Studio uninstalls that plugin.
