I recently uninstalled Flash Player from my operating system using the FP uninstall tool-it is gone from the OS system, however, the plugin still remains in the extension screen. I enabled "never activate". How do I completely remove the FP extension? Thanks

Is the plugin listed on the about:plugins page because it is possible that you didn't remove the NPAPI plugin for Firefox ?

I understand the question. Please see attached screen shots. There was no option to remove the plugin from the extension screen. Is there another way to remove it? I didn't do a computer restart if that makes a difference. Is there another way to remove the plugin? Thanks

This question is moot at this point since FF 85 removed the plugin. Thanks
