I have a disambled add-on (last fm) that will not let me enable, uninstall it. I seem to have the most current add-on installed. I have checked that it is not selected anywhere. Is there a way to manually delete it (and then reinstall). Is there some setting I should check? I have 2 seperate systems running and both have the same problem. I have gone through install from edem to rc3 and now frodo 12. One system still has rc3 on it. I have search the forums but did not discover any clues. Any ideas would be helpful and thanks in advance.

On Windows you can manually delete addons by navigating to:
/Users/[your_username]/Appdata/Roaming/XBMC/addons/
If you dont see an AppData folder simply click start, then copy and paste the following into the search bar and press return:
%APPDATA%\xbmc\addons\
Search that folder for lastfm and delete it.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I am on windows. I was able to delete . The repository still said it was disabled - did a forced refresh. reinstalled both album and artist add-ons. No effect on the problem Still says it's disabled and enable, unistall, update, and rollback are ghosted and can not be selected.

Did you delete every last instance of lastfm ?
Make sure you manually delete anything with "lastfm" in the title

did it again - deleted metadata.artists.last.fm - metadata.albums.last.fm - metadata.musicvideos.last.fm - metadata.common.last.fm Viewed diabled add=ons and they were gone .The repository still said it was disabled - did a forced refresh
during the refresh musicvideos.last.fm updated itself (and its fine) I was able to install last fm albulm and artist addon. A small notifaction screen popped up and said it was enabled

Did you use the search bar (top right) and search for lastfm whilst inside the addons folder to see if you missed anything?
I am at a loss, if you deleted everything then lastfm should not appear in your enabled or disabled list since it would not be installed.

yes I had gotten those also. Like I said before when reinstall a pop up says its enabled. Its just not when I look in add-ons. Martijn any advice? I have deleted all instances of last fm(I think) in both locations and in userdata reinstalled frodo and same results.

last.fm has been removed from XBMC, and you will never be able to enable/uninstall it via normal menu. Delete it from all directories and move on to theaudiodb or something else..
