Uninstall Canceled: Error

"Uninstall Canceled" Error in modcore EM

Have you encountered the message "Extension XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (identifier or name of the extension) uninstall canceled by user" within the modcore Extension Manager? This message indicates that the uninstallation process was interrupted. Let's clarify its meaning and outline troubleshooting steps.

Understanding the Message

• User Intervention: This message primarily signifies that the user explicitly halted the uninstallation by clicking a "stop" or "cancel" button. The modcore Extension Manager is simply providing a notification that the process did not complete.

• External Interruption: In some instances, even without direct user cancellation, an external factor might have interrupted the uninstallation process.

Resolving the Issue

1. Attempt Re-uninstallation: If you still wish to remove the extension, please initiate the uninstallation process again. Ensure the process is allowed to complete without interruption.

2. Utilize Chrome's Native Uninstallation: Alternatively, you can uninstall extensions directly through the Chrome browser:

   • Open Chrome and type chrome://extensions in the address bar.
   • Locate the extension and click "Remove."

3. Administrative Control: If you are unable to uninstall the extension, it might be under the management of an organizational policy (e.g., school or corporate network). In such cases, please consult with your system administrator or the relevant authority.

4. No Action Required (If Canceled Intentionally): If you intentionally canceled the uninstallation, this message is merely informative and requires no further action.
