Is there a safe way to get all of their files (above mentioned companies) off my Receptor?

These are manufacturers who have products on my Receptor that I will never use.
I'd like to really clean up my unit.

If I simply go through the Receptor GUI and remove the plug-ins I don't want, will it clear them off the hard-drive? or simply remove them from the available lists? (Plug-ins & Effect)

I would like to know this too. Also how to go about deleting what is i guess info in the registry about other plugs. My problem: a band member installed his version of kontakt on my receptor (i had a receptor but not kontakt, he had kontakt but not a receptor!) But now i own kontakt but everytime i try to authorise it still has the info from the previously uninstalled konatkt and wont let me authorise. How can i fix this?

I think you'll have to 'kontact' Native Instruments...
It might cost you a little, but you'd have a great plug-in working problem free.

Can anyone confirm?

You can use Regedit on the Receptor to delete out old serial numbers if you need to authorize something using a different serial number than it was originally installed under.

Of course, you have to have Regedit enabled/installed on the Receptor to do this ;-)

Yeah...
I'm not into installing something else to accomplish this, and no one has really answered my question about deleting plug-ins from Receptor's own GUI.

JV, Muse can create you a "fixer" that erases the serial number from the registry....they did this for me one time long ago before I had regedit. Just open a ticket on plugorama and keep after them ;-)

I have found that uninstalling plugins through the interface sometimes does NOT clean up files. For instance, my original RevB came with MTron pre-installed (demo). When I uninstalled it, it partially worked, but left a LOT of MTRON files laying around. A year later, I bought MTron and then it would not install because it had never been fully installed. Turned out, it was a permissions thing, and after gaining root access I was able to clean this up with a bunch of linux commands (RPM I think, and a bunch of cdmod's)....basically to manually remove packages and directories left over from the uninstall that only partially worked.

Sorry, I know this isn't very helpful!

Thank you!

Cool, how do i get regedit happening on the receptor? BTW, sorry to hijack your thread jayvee! Another bump for finding out how to get rid of those plugs.

Check out oGG's FAQ at http://ogg.kicks-ass.net/receptor

In short, you have to connect a monitor and keyboard, login as root, and edit /etc/sysconfig/receptor

Hi Atardecer!
I just want to know: which version did you friend install on your Receptor, and which version do you want to install over?

Thanks for your response! I think I have quite the same problem...
