How to remove a subscribed extension

**Beemanpat** · August 8th, 2021, 22:58

I accidently subscribed to an extension that wasn't for the ruleset that I'm using. Is there a way to remove it from the inventory list?

From what I could find, currently, you can disable updates to the extension and you won't download any updates for the said extension. This might be a good one to add to the wishlist on the top of the forum.

Ok I'll add that to that thread, wasn't sure if there was a way already and I just couldn't find it.
Thanks

if the extention is NOT a VAULT type extention, you can delete the <something>.ext file out of the \extention folder. and if you keep the "disable updates" then it will be gone.
(note, yes, i realize it keeps it in your "inventiory webpage" but atleast it isnt' showing up any more on your Campaign Load windows.

Ok, and VAULT type extensions will be deleted automatically when you stop their updates. Good to know.

I think also non-vault extensions are automatically deleted if you disable updates

(but not sure anymore though; you'd need to test)

Nope, tested it yesterday. Normal extensions are not deleted automatically, vault extensions are.

Why would you delete exts that you turn off autoupdates?

This seems silly. Because I don't like having auto updates on yet I still want to use the EXTs I have.

To free up disk space or to keep your drive clean of things you don't use/want. Each to their own

For me personally the main reason and feature of the forge are the auto updates

So, if I turn off updates of something, then because I do not use it anymore, thence it is useful for me that it is then also automatically deleted, even more so if the extension is in the vault since it is more difficult to identify there

(but if one does not want auto updates, then it is of course a different thing)
