 * Hi,
 * How do I fully uninstall the plugin? I need to do so for testing reasons and 
   see if the plugin works after a fresh install. It is not working on my new host
   and when I reinstall the plugin the settings are saved from the previous install.
 * I’m not quite sure where in the database to look to remove these files.
 * Kind regards,
 * Simon

 * Hi, try checking under wp-options table in your database using phpMyAdmin. Let
   me know if this helps you.

 * I am not too sure about the IDs.
 * I just searched in phpMyAdmin for any entries added in the plugin settings. They
   appeared under **wp-options** table in the database.
 * Let me know if you need more help.

 * Hi [@harpo1984](https://wordpress.org/support/users/harpo1984/).
 * You can use a plugin that resets the database, for example Advanced WP Reset 
   [https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-wp-reset/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-wp-reset/).
   It resets the WP database to the state as it was just after the fresh install.
   Your plugin files are kept intact, so you can simply re-activate plugins after
   the reset.
