How to uninstall Plugins in IntelliJ IDEA? - intellij-idea

Others have written to simply right-click the plugin to install, and then "Uninstall" will show up. But for me, right-clicking does nothing.
I am using Linux if that makes a difference. Thanks.

Try the Installed tab instead of the Marketplace.
Here's the official tutorial: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/managing-plugins.html#remove-plugin
In the Settings/Preferences dialog ⌘,, select Plugins.
Open the Installed tab and find the plugin that you want to remove.
Click The down arrow next to the Disable/Enable button and select Uninstall from the dropdown menu.

Go to File, Settings, Plugins, Installed, right click on the plugin, Uninstall or disable in case the plugin cannot be uninstalled directly on IntelliJ.
