Hello, the plugin entry it's probably still active in the uproject file, try to edit the uproject and open unreal again.

Hi, thanks but theres no entry for Dash in the uproject file? Oh is it GraphN?

Maybe something in the uninstall didn't finish properly: - You can check the Plugins/Marketplace folder inside the unreal installation - There should be a GraphN folder still there - Deleting it should remove the plugin from unreal registry

yup still in MP plugins folder and somehow set crazy admin rights. Even with admin permission I cannot delete the folder?

it's possible that an unreal process is stull running in background open the task manager, check for unreal editor it the process is running it will still have an hold to some dlls sometimes windows is quite annoying with file deletion if processes have used them recently, and a restart usually fixes it if killinf any residual process doesn't work. No special perimssion is used for installing the plugin

nope, no UE process. Weird, I give admin permission - it runs progress like its deleting, then complains and says I need admin. Ok yeah maybe just a reset

Try that, so many times I can't delete a file I have just opened somewhere

certainly. I had to bail due to a deadline and the Dash content system locking up my project was a bit of a no-win for me but I'm sure that'll get sorted. I'm impressed by the concept and do think what you're up to is the future.
