 * Hello,
 * I downloaded and installed the plugin to test how it works, I was not satisified
   with it so I wanted to delete it. However I donot find any possible way of removing
   this plugin. Could any one suggest here.

 * Hello,
 * If you want to delete it, just go to the plugins page, deactivate it and then
   delete it. This is the way to remove plugins.
 * Also, rating a plugin 1 star because you don’t know how to remove it is just 
   unfair. This has nothing to do with the plugin as it is tied to WordPress plugin
   management. Please adjust your rating accordingly.

 * Hello there,
 * I have been working with multiple WP for the past 5 years and Somehow this Plugin
   does not showup on Plugin Page, does not even show up when I try searching for
   it manually under WPContent … and the plugin shows up on the dashboard. How on
   earth can I delete this ?
 * Need help!

 * Hello,
 * What you are describing isn’t possible… If the plugin wasn’t showing up under
   wp-content/plugins, then it couldn’t be loaded. And if it isn’t loaded, then 
   there is nothing within the dashboard.
 * Send me a mail with your site access credentials through contact page on [http://www.ticket-system.net](http://www.ticket-system.net)
 * I will check this for you…

 * FireBird, thank you for your assistance. I guess by upgrading WP … something 
   has got stuck…. I am trying to restore it … The plugin is not on the WPContent
   as mentioned earlier… and yes, the plugin does not work as it was deleted earlier
   however the plugin remains on the dashboard. which I am trying to fix.
 * Shall I re-install WP with the back up ?

   loaded? Please send me access details and I will sort this out!

 * Ok how did you resolve it? Please modify your review to make it more fair. You
   just wrote a generic statment which doesn’t reflect WATS true value and also 
   didn’t gave me a chance to assist you… Thanks!
