RussianQuestion
Finally I have decided to get rid of aptana from eclipse but the "Software update" menu shows "unistall" as disabled. How to enable unistall and release me of aptana woes? Is there a workaround or I simply go searching for aptana everywhere and delete all files which I will eventually do?
Solution
I ran into this problem at one point and never got a completely clean uninstall of Aptana from Eclipse. I ended up just re-downloading a fresh copy of Eclipse and starting over. I had to reinstall a few other plugins, but it was easier that trying to find all the Aptana leftovers. At that point, the stand-alone (non-plugin) version of Aptana seemed to work better in general, so I just went with that.
OTHER TIPS
this thread explains how to do it cleanly. About Eclipse -> Installation Details and delete it from the Installed Software list.
This was done on an Eclipse for PHP Developers v3.0.2 Go to:
Window -> Preferences -> Install/Update -> Uninstall or update software that is already installed
Select "Installed Software" and pick the one you want to remove and select "Uninstall..."
Yep. Just had the same problem. Couldn't find any good solutions around the internet, so I did the following:
find / -name '*aptana*' -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf
Seems to have worked pretty well, though Aptana left little bits of evidence here and there.
Try to run eclipse as Administrator and see what this link can do.
Go to Help-->About Eclipse SDK--> Installation Details --> Select Aptana --> Uninstall
This worked for me.
Try to revert to a previous configuration:
Help->About Eclipse->Installation Details
Than click on "Installation History" tab and select an earlier configuration that doesn't include Aptana (it will remove any component installed after it).
I didn't mind completely reseting the eclipse environment. So, I used my OS' package manager (synaptic, ubuntu software Center, etc.) to remove eclipse then deleted /home/user/.eclipse from my home folder.
