Here you will learn how to easily remove Magento 2 Order Status and Shipping Tracking Lite using two methods – via the Automated Removal Script or Composer.
You can choose one of the following two methods to remove the extension from your Magento 2 store.
Remove Extension via Composer
In order to remove your Magento 2 Order Status and Shipping Tracking extension via the Composer, open the console (SSH terminal) and follow commands:
1. In the terminal, switch to your Magento 2 root directory using the command:
cd /FULL_PATH_TO_YOUR_MAGENTO2
where “FULL_PATH_TO_YOUR_MAGENTO2” is the path to your Magento 2 folder on your server.
2. Disable the extension:
php bin/magento module:disable Plumrocket_ShippingTracking
3. Remove the extension:
composer remove plumrocket/module-shippingtracking
4. Run the next three Magento 2 commands:
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
After running these commands, the extension should be uninstalled successfully. A similar message should be displayed in your console as displayed below:
![Installation_of_extension_via_composer_by_plumrocket_v3](/docs/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Installation_of_extension_via_composer_by_plumrocket_v3.jpg)
5. Below you will find the SQL command designed to delete all extension information from the database:
DELETE FROM core_config_data WHERE `path` LIKE 'prshippingtracking/%';
DELETE FROM setup_module WHERE `module` = 'Plumrocket_ShippingTracking';
6. Clear Magento Cache:
php bin/magento cache:flush
At this point, Magento 2 Order Status & Shipping Tracking extension has been successfully removed from your server.
