How to Uninstall the Pro Tools Plug-Ins
The following information is for advanced users who can work with system files and the
command line.
When the user installs a product on the Mac OS X, the information about the installer package is
recorded to the system database.
BundleID of the installer package (PackageBundleID) can be specified in the Product Definition
File instead of the application BundleID (or the Product Definition File can contain both of
them).
If the Product Definition File contains the PackageBundleID, Application Manager will search
for the record about it in the system database. This record contains a version of the installer
package - in Application Manager this version is shown as a version of the product. If the record
about the PackageBundleID is in the system database, Application Manager operates as if the
product is successfully installed and displays its name on the Apps Tab.
If the product must not be available for Application Manager, the record about the installation
package must be deleted from the system database on Mac OS X. To do it, use the following
command:
sudo pkgutil -- forget PackageBundleID
