I did not use the Melda installer to remove the plugins, I think that might have been a mistake. Normally on Mac I drag things to the trash to uninstall, Melda was all over the hard drive and involved a lot of digging. I have managed to remove all except a handful of the AU. I have already searched these directories and the remaining AU are to the right.

...not sure what "all over the hard drive means" in this context...in my experience melda installs pretty much "plain jane vanilla" under "osx/linux/bsd rules", which by definition will be in multiple locations, depending on what/how you chose to install originally...meaning user accounts/system accounts/au/vst/vst3/axx/etc....try locating a single plugin and then remove whatever directory that shows up, AFTER making certain that directory contains ONLY melda content...hth.../s~

See that is the problem, I can't find those remaining 10 plugins. I have looked in the places I included in the image, and doing a search in the finder brings up nothing.
Melda was in multiple folders in different places on my hard drive, I installed it a year ago and don't recall why.

...my guess would be not having "permissions" for all the system files, so they are hidden, which is "sop"/typical under osx...if you are not familiar/comfortable with full admin/god permissions under osx then google a bit first to get the lay of land, but that's where you'll what you are looking for...hth.../s~
