I deleted an old version of WordPress, but one folder remained. The YARPP folder under plugins.
And only a single file was remained and could not be deleted:
"Unable to delete the file yarpp-pt_PT.po" was the message.
Please advise how I can remove this file and finish off the deletion of WordPress. Thank you.

That seems like a permissions issue on your server. Perhaps you need root access or your hosting to help you get rid of that. There's nothing special about that file so this is purely a server issue.

Maybe you can help me, too?
I'm pretty desperate right now because this is my portfolio site and since I've just sent out about 80 application letters I'm pretty sure it'll be reviewed very soon.
I installed this plugIn since everyone recommends this one for related posts but it didn’t just show a list of related posts but additionally the code for readers to copy on their blog. Usually I would've gone through the code, checking where I had to turn off the option - but again, time's not on my side and I havve a pretty lot more still to do on that site.
Well, I wanted that gone but I didn’t find any option to turn it off. I have to admit, I didn’t really search thoroughly - like I wrote before.
Then I thought, I’d deinstall and look for another one (I need an option as well to display those only on certain categorie-related posts since this site is blog and portfolio – and I need my portfolio section clean and simple. I know that yours can do that, too, but I need something really quick and simple right now). Turning all options I could find off didn't change anything either so I deinstalled it and those links are still there. I've even replaced all the php files with the ones I saved this afternoon - didn't change anything.
How do I remove the plugIn and everything it changed completely?
I’ll be really, really thankful for any answer!

You can just delete the folder yet-another-related-posts-plugin from your plugins directory and YARPP will not run anymore.

I also just noticed in my database that the following tables still exist, despite the fact that YARPP was deleted long ago:
28 wp_yarpp_keyword_cache 536 69.0 KiB 10.0 KiB
29 wp_yarpp_related_cache 2,438 59.5 KiB 117.0 KiB
Can I empty, or better yet, drop these tables from my database now that I no longer use YARPP? And could that improve performance?
Thanks!
