Removing the plugin for Windows OS
- Close UE4 and Bridge.
- Go to where you've installed the Plugin/your Unreal Engine directory, and within it locate the Plugins folder, e.g.
C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\UE_4.2x\Engine\Plugins\ - Within this Plugins folder, locate the subfolder titled MegascansPlugin and/or UnrealEnginePython and DELETE them both (if found).
Now the installed Plugin is removed from Unreal Engine 4.2x. - Then go to your Megascans Library folder, found via Bridge > Edit > Settings on your machine, for e.g.:
C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\Megascans Library\support\plugins
Within the plugins folder, locate the subfolder titled Unreal and DELETE it.
Now the Plugin installation files have been removed as well.
_______________________________________________________________
- Open your Unreal Editor and ensure that there is no Megascans Plugin icon present on the Shelf anymore (as shown below).
Confirming that the Plugin was properly removed
- Close the Unreal Editor once confirmed.

- Go to the path defined below and delete the folders titled "Bridge" and "Megascans Bridge"
/Users/[USER]/Library/Application Support/Bridge
/Users/[USER]/Library/Application Support/Megascans Bridge - Go to the path where your plugin is installed.

The default path is Macintosh HD\Users\Shared\Epic Games\UE_4.2x\Engine\Plugins.
Once there, delete the "MegascansPlugin" folder or "UnrealEnginePython" folder, depending on the UE4 version for which you installed the plugin. - Go to the folder specified in the Local Library Path in Bridge > Edit > Settings, on your machine and within the "support/plugins" folder, delete the UNREAL folder inside it.
