    Please help!
    I tried to delete the plugin All-In-One Security and I don’t succeed at all.
    The Plugin has been unactivated and deleted in the WordPress Dashboard (Plugins). It is not there anymore in the ftp-files.
    But:
    – there is there is still aios-firewall-loader in the mu-plugins (unactivated)
    – there is aios-bootstrap.php in the WP-files! If I deactvate it, the whole website is gone!!
    – in the database there are big files of aios! Why?
    Why are they not deleted when deleting the plugin?
    I cannot remove the files, because the website will be crashed!

    Thanks for help,
    aipe

    Hi @aipe

    If you delete the plugin properly it should delete the aios-firewall-loader mu-plugin and the database tables.

    Can you please provide more details which database table is still there ?

    To remove aios-bootstrap.php make sure that wp-config.php. , htaccess, .user.ini file in root of the wordpress installed directory do not include the aios-bootstrap.php
    and remove aios-bootstrap.php from the same folder you have wp-config.php

    I will create internal ticket to check more details.

    Hello and thanks for responding!

    I followed this Tutorial advised, but nothing changed:
    The mentioned files in FTP are still there and in the databank six folders (wp_aiowps_audit_log until wp_aiowps_permanent_block).
    .user.ini / .htaccess (a lot!) / wp-config.php all have text AIOWPSEC mentioned inside.
    Shall I remove it all? And then delete all files including the database-folders?

    Hi @aipe

    The tutorial link you sent is All in one seo plugin not All in one security plugin.

    If you have Deactivated and Delted the All in one security plugin from Plugins list it should delete most the AIOS files and database and wp_options, If still there is issue and you can see the AIOS related files / database please cross check below how to manually delete everything for AIOS ( All in one security) plugin

    In extra of remove the plugins files /wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall, and
    /wp-content/mu-plugins/aios-firewall-loader.php
    tables start with {tableprefix}_aiowps needs to removed also remove from wp_options having “aio”

    SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '%aio%'

    Please also remove from .htaccess all code between,

    “BEGIN All In One WP Security”
    “END All In One WP Security”

    Also make sure that wp-config.php. , htaccess, .user.ini file in root of the wordpress installed directory do not include the aios-bootstrap.php
    and remove aios-bootstrap.php from the same folder you have wp-config.php

    Also remove the wp-content\uploads\aios\firewall-rules\settings.php
    Let me know if still any issue.
